… truly remarkable, both in her grasp of the case (detail and big picture) and in her management of [the client] which I know has not always been easy. I have the privilege of working with the best solicitors in the best firms … but few have been able to provide such consistently and remarkably competent input as Claire has done, with unfailing good humour and, when necessary, resilience.

‘Claire is a very pragmatic person and a real all-rounder.’

Claire Blakemore is down to earth and sensible. Clients stand a very good chance of sorting things out with Claire and are also able to feel that they had an opportunity to put their views across.

Claire combines professionalism with being very commercial, responsive and also entirely empathetic in difficult times of divorce.

Claire Blakemore will go to the wire for her clients, defending them to the hilt. She is quick witted and uber efficient.

Claire is a brilliant mediator who shows real skill in helping clients find any common ground between them. Her patience is legendary but she also commands respect and combined with her sense of humour this means she will help clients settle if there is a chance of doing so.

She is extremely bright and personable and always goes the extra mile to protect her clients. She will find a solution if there is one to find.
