“I have very much enjoyed working with Sally O’Connell and found her evidence clear and compelling, and always timely. She had an exceptionally good grasp and understanding of the issues involved in this complex case and the advice she provided, particularly with reference to the Defendant’s quantum evidence just before we commenced the mediation, was extremely helpful to us in assessing the value of the claim, and the litigation risks in connection with the issues upon which she was asked to advise. I would certainly wish to instruct Sally again, and to recommend her to colleagues.”
