I have forwarded your email correspondence to Kelly, the managing partner on the case. I have accepted a new position at a different law firm and will no longer be working on your matter. Kelly is aware of the status of your case and will be able to properly respond to your concerns moving forward.

You are in the best of hands with Kelly and I wish your whole family best wishes moving forward.

-Jill
