 * Hi there, I’ve got a problem with formatting and checkboxes. When I create a 
   series of checkboxes, which have long sentences next to them, you automatically
   get a gap if the sentences have gone into a second line. How would I go about
   removing this gap and keeping the two lines closer together?
 * Here’s an example of what I mean: [https://s5.postimg.org/anx3ch5hz/contact_form_7.png](https://s5.postimg.org/anx3ch5hz/contact_form_7.png)

 * you can give this small piece of code in your custom css
 * input[type=”checkbox”] {
    margin-bottom: 5px !important; }
 * or you can write like this
 * .wpcf7-list-item .first .last input[type=”checkbox”] {
    margin-bottom: 5px !important;}
 * This may work
    Thanks
