Thank you John.

Thank you for your sincere effort in helping me to find someone to handle my case. I can't tell you in words how wonderful it is to know someone cares enough to take the time and effort in helping a fellow human being. Thanks again for your kindness.
I want to thank you for all that you have done. You helped make an unbearable situation, easier by being sensitive, understanding, and so very helpful. I felt a little sad to get this letter as our final business together. Your hard work and determination has made a huge difference in my life. Thank you again and I wish you all the best. Hopefully I will see you around. With love.

I have received your letter and paperwork. I wanted to write and convey my gratitude for looking into the situation. During our first meeting you were clear that there was a possibility that a case may or may not be made pending the outcome of your investigation. I have been quite satisfied with the work that you and your firm have done. The mere fact that you looked into the situation has been a blessing. As mentioned before, regardless of the outcome, your assistance will reinforce the healing process.
Please reiterate my words of thanks to those in your firm who have taken the time to investigate and sequester medical records. You took the time and worked with me despite limited financial resources. On behalf of my family, and myself thank you for all of your help and assistance these last couple of years. You and your firm are a testament to your profession.
