I had the great pleasure of working with Rachel at Ascot Lawyers, and knew of her by reputation at Shoosmiths. Rachel has proven herself to be an excellent solicitor, with a calm approach that benefits her clients, the team and the business. Always willing to get involved no matter what the issue or how short the notice. She was the foundation of her team and ensured that the success of the team was prioritised. I have seen Rachel on a number of occasions spend extra time with a member of her team coaching them through whatever difficulties they may have and encouraging them towards the greater goals of the business rather than fleeting personal glory. As a Director of the business it was always reassuring to have senior people understand the needs to pull together and that success is built up everyone working towards a common aim. Rachel is an outstanding litigator and advocate. I would often have Rachel challenge my approach on something in order to reveal any weaknesses in a case. In its own way it was a pleasure to match wits. Rachel dealt with some very complex matters and clients. She was thorough in her approach to all matters to ensure the best possible chance of success. Rachel was very clear in her advice to clients and left no room for misunderstanding even with those clients for whom misunderstanding is a default setting. Rachel will be a dedicated and hardworking of any organisation she joins; and they will be lucky to have such talent join their ranks.

Rachel is an enthusiastic, hard-working, self-motivated solicitor, with good technical ability. As counsel instructed by her, she is an absolute pleasure to work for. Her files are in all in apple-pie order, and her instructions are considered, insightful and clear. She really does go above and beyond for her clients, and stands out for building up a good rapport with clients who find themselves in difficult situations. She gains and inspires confidence and trust. Our work together has all been multi track, with valuations in the bracket of 100-500/750k. In my experience these can represrent the more complicated and demanding in terms of case handling. The cases can easily become entrenched, but Rachel has the patience and determination to see matters such as these to a conclusion. She has ability to get cases ‘over the finishing line’, which is not such a common talent.
