Much appreciated.

Forgive me for the wording, but myself and family cannot thank you enough for everything you have done.... This was the most difficult time in my life without any doubt .. I sit back now and can’t work out how I actually got thru it all , but one thing I do know Is If it wasn’t for you , I would never have got thru it your guidance and even just a phone call was enough for me to instantly feel better and keep on moving forward...

Hello Annelis and Emily,

What a momentous day! I will send another letter, but thanking you all in getting to this position. I know it has not been easy, and you needed on more than one occasion to act as part psychologist with me. However, I look back and know the right advice was given and I thank you for that so I can start to move on in part with my life.

I can guarantee a meal with one, maybe two bottles of Grange :)

Thank you Emily. I really do appreciate the high quality professional service you have provided me throughout this process. Take care and all the best.

My sincere and heartfelt thanks to you for your kindness shown and for your professional advice. I was indeed quite distressed that day but felt a ton had lifted after speaking with you. Your office has a warm and welcoming atmosphere.

Thank you again for your ongoing work on this. It gives me enormous peace of mind knowing you are in my corner…

Thank you so very much for your support and work today. I greatly appreciate everything you, Kate, Ping and Ben and everyone else at Coote do for us.

Thank you to Emily and the rest of the Team at Coote Family Lawyers – you have done an exceptional job!
