    • I can never thank you enough, you have been amazing. Very patient, supportive and kind to me in my worst times. Thank you for listening to me in a time I was not listened to. You were very honest, professional yet very kind and supportive all the way through. Not forgetting to mention Rosanna, she was also amazingly very supportive and always at the end of the line when you were not in your office, please thank her a lot for me.

    • I wanted to thank you from the bottom of my heart for choosing me such an able, impressive and incredible Barrister.  Also, thank you for your support throughout this ordeal. I cannot praise you enough for the work you have done for me, often to tight deadlines, at short notice, and involving a most unpleasant individual!
