Testimonial

“Nilam first spoke to me about the role a year in advance. Despite this long time horizon, I felt listened to. When the time finally came to apply, the company did not mobilise as quickly as all parties had envisaged, however, whenever I contacted Nilam for updates, she was always very responsive and did her best given the circumstances. In the end, the job that Nilam suggested came to fruition and I am very happy in the role. I would confidently recommend Nilam to others in my network as she has great personal skills and a large network of contacts within the niche construction claims and disputes industry.”
