Exceeding all expectations!

I came to FJG in a mad panic as circumstances had developed in such a way that I was not even going to be in a position to present my side, let alone come to some kind of resolution. Ellie Maynard jumped on this immediately and managed to pull everything together in a very short period of time. It included a very late finish. This alleviated my concerns massively and in turn enabled Joel Vila-Tyson to be in a position to present it to court. Joel himself had no real time to prepare, but despite that managed to present such a good position statement that it practically persuaded the judge on what directions to give. Ultimately, both Ellie and Joel went above and beyond expectations and it resulted in the best possible outcome in the circumstances.
