Anil
Thank you so so so much for your professionalism, support, understanding and kindness. I’ll never forget what you have done for me.
Charles
Just a quick note to say a huge thank you for all your work on mum’s case. We are both extremely grateful for the result you were able to obtain, and the complete professionalism with which the matter was conducted. Somewhat ironically, mum has a general distrust and fear of the legal process. Because of this, she was quite reluctant to start a claim at all. However, the way you dealt with her and her matter from the very beginning immediately engendered a sense of trust and confidence. Ultimately, this meant that she had the resilience to pursue the matter and achieve fair compensation from an unfair situation.
Naomi
Michelle, to say thank you seems so inadequate but those two little words come with heartfelt meaning. You have made the rest of our lives so much easier, not only for us but also for our grandchildren and great grandchildren.
– R & M
Thank you again for all the support, guidance and work you have provided and done for our family. The outcome well and truly is more that I could have asked for but it will provide endless relief and security. You have been a pillar of hope and support for us when needed. Thank you again for all that you have done.
– A.G. – Unanderra
Michelle, our family wanted to extend our deepest gratitude for the outstanding work you did on dad’s case. Thank you for your compassion for our family. We couldn’t have asked for a better lawyer.
– L.E.D.A.C
Thank you so much for all your support and work to arrive at this outcome. It has been a long drawn out case but I cannot tell you how much I value this recognition and your support.
Again I can’t tell you how positive this outcome is. Not just monetary but to highlight and combat bullying in the workplace.
– C.B.
