Our dog Gino is an invaluable member of our team.
His calming presence is welcomed by clients and children who see Rene in her capacity as a children’s lawyer.
Meet Ollie who loves hanging out with Rene at home or in the office but never with Gino at the same time. (One day they will be friends).
Ollie had a sad start in life and was found dumped in the park with his siblings. He was treated for cat flu, desexed, vaccinated in the height of the pandemic and is a proud and happy member of our team.
