“Gwyn Lewis was recommended to me to act for my son. His guidance, honesty & professional warm manner made a terrible situation for our family easier. Phone calls to Gwyn were always responded to even if just to say “I’m with a client, will call you back”, which always happened. My thanks also to Lisa Nevitt for putting me at ease in the initial stages with her kindness, explanations, and responding to my endless emails.
