'I had my day in court on Monday and I won everything. Her enforcement was dismissed, the original order was discharged, my order for no contact was granted and there is a bar on applying to the courts for 3 years. It’s finally all over!!!!
It’s taken a hell of a long journey as I’m sure you remember the gibbering wreck I was when I first contacted you. It’s taken a huge team of people along the way to fight this battle but at last the war has been won. I couldn’t have done it without your help and everyone else’s
"Thank you again Mr King, for helping to make this moment happen."
''On the day John brought clarity and focus to a very complex and sensitive situation that span across years.
Prior to my hearing John with the assistance of Dessy was able to shift through a huge amount of documentation. They presented me with a strategy that they thought would be successful and they were right.
At the hearing there were three main issues to be directed on or settled. On the day John won the case in all areas. I can say that John’s calm nature, attention to detail and professionalism shone through.
John was confident and articulate even though the opposing side presented what seemed to be a strong case against me. Despite all the accusations John brought the truth to the forefront and presented it in a coherent way for the Judge to understand.
I recommend John King one hundred percent!"
