"I always had tremendous faith and trust in Mr Winter’s judgements and I can be happy in the knowledge that we did all that we could to try and reach a just and fair settlement prior to the Court case … Mr Winter consistently performed to a much higher standard than the opposition and for this reason, I am certain, Rawlison Butler will continue to thrive in the family sector."

What I said when I was asked
