"If you like me were searching for a solicitor to represent you, I have good news if you are reading this your search is over. I had no previous contact with or experience of this law firm. I contacted the offices of Raeside and Chislom by phone on 26-5-21. My call was answered by Caroline who within minutes directed my lengthy enquiry to Mr David Diog. There followed a succession of emails culminating in a lengthy phone conversation on the Morning of 27-5-21. Davids knowledge of the matter at hand was only matched by his willingness to share this knowledge. Within a short time, all aspects were explained to me in a manner I could understand. I was taken from confusion to illumination in the course of that conversation with the utmost efficiency and understanding of my predicament. When I insisted that he invoice me for his time in this matter he refused. He insisted that he was glad to be of assistance. It is indeed extremely rare in today's world to encounter a true gentleman. A gentleman who gave freely of his time and expertise. His only interest was resolving the matter and clarifying some very intricate aspects of Scots Law, so specialised in fact that other firms had declined to help on the basis of its specialised and intricate nature. David thank you again for your help and for restoring my faith in the kindness and decency of man."
