259 – Geeta Patel – Family

Thank you for the integral part you have played, in immortalising more time for me and my daughter – even as a writer, I would never be able to find the words that would adequately describe the depths of my gratitude.

247 – Family – Geeta

Your whole team have been amazing throughout and I will forever be grateful of what you all helped me achieve. The hours you and your team put in doesn’t go unnoticed, at one stage I wasn’t sure if Geeta had even been home that evening.

246 – Family – Geeta – Maria

From the moment Geeta stepped in and took the lead she has been a star, she has dedicated a lot of time to supporting me, and always been on hand when I needed her. She has kept communication with me open and clear, and alongside Maria was a powerful team in our first hearing.

245 – Family – Geeta

It’s been a long and challenging few years, I have certainly had some very bad periods through it, but with both yours and Geeta’s support I have managed to achieve what I set out to do, get back on my feet.

240 – Geeta – Family

Geeta, Thank you for all your hard work, I really could not have done it without you.
