I absolutely loved working with Karin. She was very quick to reply on everything and we got so much done in such a short space of time. I highly recommend Karin and it was great fun working with her too. We had to cover quite a lot and therefore thought the bill would huge but it wasn't. Our company is based in London so we're used to very high prices but this was far from that. So a big thank you to Karin and also Lexoo for having such a slick and efficient service that works like clockwork!!!!
