Pls see below thanks - reflexivo within the meaning that some thought had been given to the actual text or email sent as I understand it

En el presente caso, hemos de reiterar que mi mandante, dentro de un escrito reflexivo, intentando dar soluciones a problemas físicos del campo de golf, criticó a personas ajenas al Club, con palabras que siendo aparentemente fuertes, dentro del contexto de un correo electrónico exclusivamente remitido a otros socios y miembros de la Junta Directiva, calificaba el comportamiento de terceras personas, según unos hechos que previamente habían sucedido y que se debatía la idoneidad de la contratación de estas personas.

I just saw in a previous question that this is an e-mail insulting people?

maybe

"considered" would be better than "well-reasoned" if that's the case

Peer comments on this answer (and responses from the answerer)
agree  Robert Forstag: Fine (or, perhaps, "...in his carefully considered written statement...." / Thank you. Ideally at least, this is what translation should be all about (i.e., critically evaluating a text that is already good and making it even better). All the best!

  -> thanks! I really like your tweaking "carefully-considered written statement..." would seem to fit here.//if only everyone had that attitude:-)
neutral  Billh: considered maybe but it still may be badly reasoned or thought out
