- What advice would you give a customer looking to hire a provider in your area of work?
Far too many attorneys are far too inaccessible to their clients. Our firm is completely the opposite. We are diligent and tenacious, yet also down to earth and accessible. We will never use support staff as a way of keeping ourselves from our clients. Quite to the contrary, we know from experience the absolutely critical nature of having an attorney-client relationship based on effective communication and we pride ourselves on our accessibility to our clients.
