Strengths
It is clear that the department looks after its clients in a very positive and inclusive manner. Due to their close relationship with their clients, those within the department strive to react faster to a client's problems than a client can react themselves - no mean feat!
I find their client service to be excellent across all the departments I deal with because of their well-organised administration and their quick responses to emails, phone calls, and any requests I have made.
Anderson Strathern's communication is always clear, concise and timely. Individuals in this department display empathy and understanding.
