Dear Amanda …We first met, I believe, in your offices when we went through the preliminaries. You put me at my ease then as matters progressed, teasing out from me as such as you needed in a very sympathetic and professional manner sufficient to bring the case to a satisfactory conclusion. I really appreciate it. Yes, I shall certainly regard you as my solicitor in the event I need further legal advice/assistance! I have completed the client care questionnaire and enclose it with this letter: ten out of ten! How could it be less!"
