ProsePerfect Testimonials

Completing the task of a well-written graduate paper takes time, effort, and the right editorial service. ProsePerfect helped me to say exactly what I intended in my research.
Thank you!
Jane Davin, MLS

We retained Linden Communications for research into the transportation industry in New York City, the purpose being to inform private-sector organisations of opportunities for doing business there. I am pleased to say that the LC report “Getting On Board” has been a resounding success, both within the agency and among our industry constituents. It is exhaustively researched and elegantly written.
Robert Guerin, Deputy Minister, Ministry of Trade, Government of Canada

Nick can be relied upon to complete projects in a timely manner, is prompt in his attendance, writes with a high degree of accuracy and content, and demonstrates excellent organizational skills. I recommend him highly.
Cheryl Kraft, Vice President for Operations, Hennepin Faculty Associates

Nick Pease is among the two or three best writers, and the very best editor, I’ve ever known. During his seven years at the MTA he raised the quality of our corporate literature to a level seldom reached in either the public or the private sector. In addition to being a superb writer, Nick (though he would probably deny it) is an authority on the English language; the online style guide he developed at headquarters has become the standard reference source throughout our seven-agency transit network.
Walter Green, Director of Communications, NY Metropolitan Transportation Authority

I worked with Nick Pease when he was the speech writer for Mark G. Yudof, the University president. Nick was amazingly dependable, writing over 500 speeches in a year and a half and never missing a deadline. He also wrote articles and speeches for regents, vice presidents and deans. President Yudof received many compliments on the speeches and I had numerous requests for reprints. Nick was a real “pro,” and someone we all enjoyed working with.
