I would also like to take the time to thank you [Ann] for all your work on my case. You have been very helpful to me, and have at times been a reassuring figure that it would work out. I believe we got a good outcome in the end. Thanks for the many days of advice, your professionalism, and good communication. I did struggle mentally through a lot of the process, but you again gave me sound advice, and showed concern for my well being. Thank you for this.
I will always remember you for your assistance, and will recommend you to anyone I meet that may need your help.
P.T., VIC
I would like to say thank you to you both for how professionally you have been in your conduct in handling my situation, and a special thanks to you Ann for not only giving me all the advice I needed to hear/have, but for also listening to my special requests and making sure they they were implemented in the appropriate legal way.
