Kori was a passionate and committed member of the legal representing our company in a major case. She brought a lot of common sense, calm and organised assurance to the team which led to a high degree of comfort in the presentation of our defence.
Kori stepped in to cover other team members when required with such an assurance that as the client we had no stress that our case progressed unabated.
Kori helpfully requested anything she required in a clear and concise manner and made a stressful experience, of defending a major case, all the better as a result of her involvement.
