Once again, I'd like to thank Melinda. I think she did a wonderful job.

Colleen

Melinda and staff, Pat and I would like to express our thanks for all your excellent hard work you have done on our claims. The work you have done will allow us to live a life we never thought would happen. We now do not have to worry about Pat’s medical expenses. We have had a lot of hard times, now things may settle down. Thank you.

Pat & Marilyn

Melinda and staff, Thank you for your efforts in bringing my case to a happy ending!

Clare

To my own personal solicitor extraordinaire and good friend Melinda, thank you so much for the great job you did on my Workers Comp case. Despite my 26 years as a lawyer, I was spectacularly unsuccessful in making headway against GIO, yet you (in super-quick time) succeeded in getting me everything I was entitled to. You’re amazing! Thanks again.
