A Thank You Letter to My Attorney Team
To my incredible legal team, Anne Marie, Theresa, and everyone at Cotchett Pitre & McCarthy LLP:
I am writing this with a heart so filled with gratitude, it’s hard to find the words. We have reached a pivotal point in my case against the bank, and I am overwhelmed with thankfulness for each and every one of you.
When we began this fight in the beginning of 2024, I felt lost, facing a powerful giant that seemed impossible to defeat. But you became my warriors. Your fierce battle against the banks motion to dismiss was my first glimpse of light in the darkness. The fact that we not only won that fight but also ensured that it ended in a mediation for a settlement is a miracle that I owe entirely to your brilliance and unwavering determination.
But I need to tell you the whole truth. This was never just about the money for me. For two long years, you have done so much more than just practice law. You held my hand and gave me emotional support when I was breaking. You treated my case as if my concerns were your own; I felt your warmth deep within my soul. That love was a lifeline. In my darkest moments, the hope and strength you gave me did more than encourage me to continue fighting for this case—it truly helped keep me alive.
Your belief in me was so powerful that it gave me the courage to find my own voice again. Because of your encouragement, I found the strength to stand and testify before Senators and Assembly members. You helped me turn my pain into purpose and my stress into strength.
This has been more than a legal journey; it has been a journey of the heart. I am certain that God placed each of you in my life for a reason, to be my guides and my guardians through this chapter.
Thank you for fighting for me. Thank you for caring for me. Thank you for believing in me when I struggled to believe in myself. Thank you for being such an important presence in my life. I will carry the memories of what you have done for me for the rest of my life.
With all my love and gratitude,
Alice
