First Class Service and 48 Hour Result from Ella Thorpe
I had cause to instruct Ella Thorpe on Monday of this week in regards to an urgent matter regarding my elderly mother and the denial of an NHS Trust to give me access to see her in hospital following a heart attack. The reason being- Covid restrictions. I instructed her on Monday 2 August 2021 and following a robust letter to the NHS Trust, visitation and access to the ward was granted today on Wednesday 4 August 2021. Ella was thorough, articulate, bright and within the hour, knew the case backwards. I have encountered numerous members of the legal profession, myself being Counsel, but given this area was not my speciality, I instructed Ella. She is a rising star in the legal profession. I cannot commend her highly enough. Thank you Ella.
