"Marshall was quick to respond and very knowledgeable. I'll also give him bonus points for his generosity in my case: I had a number of additional questions after I had already paid my invoice, and expected to be charged for the additional research (I mentioned this to him as well). He insisted on keeping the payment the same, and still answered my additional questions. I really appreciated working with you, Marshall. Thank you!"
