Stephen Greenwood

“ Experience was excellent. ”

“ I particularly noted the fact that even if I just "popped" in with a quick question for Stephen Greenwood, he would immediately come downstairs to see me and nothing was too much trouble for him. His calm approach enabled me to stay calm at times when things were a bit fraught! Many thanks for your support and sensitivity to my divorce situation. That made things easier for me. ”
