Dear Emma,

Thank you for 3 years of professional support, good advice and direction in my (ongoing) matter.

Juggling logic, people’s minds, deadlines and working within possibilities of the legal framework without losing common sense, logic and empathy is what I rate as highly important in a lawyer representing people in my situation.

I would choose you again!

Thanks and kind regards,

Janneke

Many years ago, in a desperate place, I found PWB. 

Families are inherently complicated, not least those needing the court system. Your relationship with your lawyer will reflect intimate & difficult scenarios of your life. 

Trust is everything when you’ve been through the mill.

Emma Daniels & the entire PWB team carefully, succinctly & compassionately assist you navigate your experiences/situation in court & behind the scenes for the most important people in your life; your children.  

Personally, I cant thank Emma & PWB enough. I’m a different person at the end if it,  Emma & the team were with me & my children all the way. That support & peace of mind is priceless.
