Style & Approach

Given my background as a dental surgeon, I am experienced at helping participants feel relaxed in a stressful situation. I am also experienced at listening and then breaking down complex legal and medical problems into more understandable language in order to help participants reach an outcome that they desire. I am patient, calm, conscientious and supportive, and I will make every effort to help participants reach a solution which all parties are happy with.

Client Feedback

“-I am a dental surgeon who has had a contractual dispute with a former principal. Louisa has been advising me on this case for the past year. Louisa is very professional and has replied to my queries promptly at all times. She has been incredibly kind, supportive and I honestly don’t think I could have got through this process without having her helping me. 

-She explains complex matters with ease, was clear on strategy, tenacious on her feet and also empathetic.

-I have recommended her to my friends and colleagues and she is a true credit to her profession. Dentistry’s loss had been a huge gain for the legal field! “
