Dear Marita, I just wanted to say thank you for all you have done for me. Your quiet, gentle calm wisdom kept me grounded. You were very patient and always there for me when I needed you. I really appreciate everything you did, getting my separation sorted so I could start a new life.
Elisa has been such an integral and important part of this whole process and I have felt so safe and well looked after in her hands. She has been so reliable and compassionate and amazing to deal with the whole way through and we would have been lost without her.
Hi Marita and Penelope, I just wanted to say thank you very much for such a fantastic result in Court today. The last few months have been challenging to say the least but it all paid off today. I will certainly be recommending Blackwood Family Lawyers to anyone I know going through a similar situation.
Penelope, my gratitude for all of your tireless work and support for the duration of my settlement. You have made this process straightforward and painless. I feel very lucky to have you recommended to me.
Dear Paul and Natalie, I would just like to take this opportunity to put in words my appreciation for the sterling job you both did over the last year or so to represent me… The outcome was very much in line with your advice and is testament to your professionalism. Unlike many anecdotal horror stories I've heard in recent times, you never inflated the possibilities but rather, remained realistic and consistent.
I would also like to express my gratitude to Marita for successfully guiding me through my separation. Please tell her I truly appreciate the attention to detail and the counselling she persevered in providing.
Thank you Marita, you are really thorough and on the ball in every way. I am in excellent hands and I realise that I am fortunate.
Hi Nat, Thanks also for your patience and kindness through all of this, it's really appreciated.
Hi Marita, thank you so much for all your help on this divorce, you have been amazing and supportive during this process.
Dear Marita, I wish to personally thank you and Elisa for your good and crucial work on our matter. We came to you at the peak of our distress and mess and you and Elisa untangled it.
Thanks Marita. I appreciate the advice and support you've provided (again) through the course of these issues. You've again managed to help me achieve a result I'm really happy with.
Hi Wendy, Just wanted to thank you for your expertise and calmness yesterday. Much appreciated.
Hi Marita, Thank you so much for your support, being our voice of calm and encouragement.
Thank you Penelope for the great news and all your help and hard work. You've done a great job and we crossed the finish line together.
Hi Pene. It was a great achievement today. I just want to celebrate your creativity which we were talking about today. On behalf of my whole family we want to thank you for your efforts in getting this result today. Of course this is not over, but somehow wanted to congratulate you for your brilliance which got us to where we are today.
Thanks Marita for all your help on my matter. I really do appreciate your calm, professional and ethical approach and although I don't wish to have to lean on your services again I will be sure to pass on your details if ever someone else needs some help.
Hi Penny, Just thought I would thank you again for all your services this year. It was great to have you by my side.
Dear Marita, I just want to thank you for your time and kindness… you are a remarkable lawyer with emotional intelligence.
Pene, Thanks again for your exceptional hard work and professionalism in this matter.
Marita, as you know I have been stressed up to the eyeballs the past few months with all the worry about this situation. Seeing you has given me some clarity and renewed motivation and I thank you for that.
Caroline, you've been so wonderful and such an amazing source of strength in addition to being ridiculously efficient and fantastic at your job.
Hi Sally, Thank you to yourself and Marita for your excellent help during the past 6 odd months. I feel lucky that a friend recommended Blackwood, and specifically Marita, and I'll definitely be passing on your name to anyone (touch wood) who might need help with a family law matter.
Dear Wendy, Elisa and Stephanie, I just wanted to express my thanks, you have all made this process far easier than I had anticipated. It is much appreciated.
Hi Marita and Sally, I would like to thank you both for your help and support throughout the process. Thank you again for your assistance and professionalism. It was a pleasure dealing with you both.
Thanks, Marita. Appreciate all your help and support. You've been amazing.
Dear Nat, Marita and Steph, I'd like to thank you all especially Natalie for her epic effort with this last round. I am so appreciative of the support and guidance with my somewhat combative ex 'husband'.
Marita. Thank you to Sally and yourself for all your help. I've really appreciated this, and will certainly pass on your name if I have any friends in future who need family law advice.
Marita, Thank you for this and your counsel this morning. You'll never know how valuable I find your insights and advice.
Caroline, I can't thank you enough for everything that you've done. You've been truly amazing and have made the process as simple and tolerable as I imagine it could possibly be. Your professionalism has been second to none.
Dear Marita, Thank you so much for your support and care during a period that has been highly emotional and stressful. Your authenticity, patience and thoughtfulness has made working with you easy and a relationship that we really value.

Marita, Thank you very much for all your help and assistance in this matter! To not have this continually hanging over me is a massive weight off my shoulders and I'm so thankful for all the work you have done to get to this point. To say I was extremely shocked and ecstatic at the result on Tuesday was an understatement! I am very grateful for you and your teams hard work to bring this to a close.

"Marita, Just a quick note to let you know what really good work Sally is doing for both of us. She is very positive, diligent and a pleasure to work with; it's really refreshing to see people that take great pride in their work and the place they work for; she's a great asset to your work place.
If I had to jump out of the trenches and take "no man's land", I would have the three of you, with me, any day. Many thanks."
