Thanks for following up so well at your end.
Wolf and Wagner, Attorneys
At the time of major decision making regarding the sale of our fuel oil and heating divisions, your firm was recommended by a respected business in our area which had just gone through the same process...After a very short period you came back with a qualified buyer at a price which was more than expected.
