 “Our firm engaged John as a consultant in a legal matter involving a niche area of financial practice. John’s industry knowledge assisted in unpacking how the niche area worked and in preparing and developing our arguments relating to the trajectory of the plaintiff’s likely earnings absent injuries sustained in a motor vehicle accident. John’s advice allowed us to understand and speak the right language and ultimately was a factor leading to the successful resolution of the matter for our client. John was professional, prompt and courteous throughout.” Guild Yule LLP
