Dear Louise Thank-you so much for all your help during my husband’s case. In the early days I would not have coped or survived if I did not have your text messages and encouragement to keep going. Your contact would be any time – day or night but meant so much in those dark days of despair. The kindness offered to the boys helped us all as a family to keep going. Communication was always quick and speedy to take some of the worry away. Knowing someone professional as you was dealing with my husband’s matters was reassuring. On Monday he was convicted but received a sentence that nobody could have dreamt was possible. Even his barrister was amazed and praised your preparation of case notes for the hearing. She had not worked with you before but really sang your praises. I must also thank you in the selection of the barrister who portrayed my husband in the best of light. Not easy in a vacuous court room with many of the judiciary around. She was lovely but professional. She maintained a highly diligent delivery of his letters of reference despite the judge getting bored!! A great team. I cannot express my thanks enough for your wonderful support and compassion and if ever I can help with another poor wife going through the same thing I would be happy to do so. With the very best of wishes and kindest of regards Mrs A - Cheshire

Words can't describe how grateful I am to you [Louise] with all your help in this situation. I don't think it's sunk in yet given how long it has been hanging over us but there's just a massive sense of relief now. I could never have phrased that letter any better and I honestly appreciate everything you did and all the help you have given my mother and I. Thank you so so much for all of your help and how quickly you dealt with it all. Thanks again, will never forget it. Mr M - Cheshire
