I’m writing to thank you again for your great work in the Bowers v. Washington Mutual Bank case. Your willingness to serve as our expert witness on such short notice was incredible. Your quick study and understanding of the issues was nothing short of brilliant. I believe that your deposition testimony was instrumental in convincing the other defendants that they had liability in the case, and allowed us to achieve such a great settlement at the mediation.
