You did a very good job, including a great job on cross . . . You were good on your feet, a real strength of yours. . . I wouldn't have changed anything about your work on the case. . . .

Your report was well-constructed with excellent attention to detail . . . very strong, yet such that a lay person could fully comprehend it. (Senior Defense Litigation Partner)

Your report was excellent, detailed, and addressed every issue . . . The client and carrier were thrilled . . . There was no rebuttal report - after all, what could they say? (Defense Partner)
