She would like to say that she is a Beagle owner but feels that it is probably more the other way round and her Beagle owns her!

"After many rejections & misfortunes, my mother & I eventually had the extremely good fortune to be introduced to Dawn Slow. She has from the outset diligently pursued our negligence case for close to 4 years and now in 2019 we finally have a positive outcome. Sadly my mother didn't live to see this day, but we both were grateful that Dawn understood how life-changing medical mistakes can be & that sometimes it is absolutely necessary that our national institutions are held accountable. Her tenacity & compassion held me together through a very emotionally difficult & frustrating few years. I would like to recommend this very savvy & highly intelligent lady to anyone who has a difficult negligence case they want to pursue. Thank you Dawn."

"Handling my case was Mrs Dawn Slow who was very professional and efficient and communicated with me on a regular basis. I would like to thank them very much and would not hesitate in recommending their services."
