With her, maybe, I'm in the clear (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

claire

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'with her' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this defines the answer.

'i'm in the clear' is the wordplay.
I cannot really understand how this works, but
'i'm' could be 'i' (I've seen this in other clues) and 'i' is present in the answer.
an anagram of 'clear' is 'clare' which is present in the remaining letters.
No letters remain.
This may be the basis of the clue (or it may be nonsense).

'maybe' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Another definition for claire that I've seen is " Girl".)
