I have known Melissa since we attended law school. She's an incredibly hard worker and dedicated to achieving the best result. I'm happy to call her a friend as well as my estates attorney. Melissa goes the extra mile for her client's and produces an excellent work product. I recommend Melissa to any...one who looking for an attorney who will achieve good results while delivering legal services in a personable and caring manner.

Excellent Estate Planning

Melissa was by far the easiest attorney I have ever worked with. She was extremely friendly, professional and worked diligently to meet my needs and timelines. She is very knowledgeable and was always able to answer any questions I had about the entire process as it was something completely new for... me. She puts in the extra time and effort to make sure that you are receiving everything that you want throughout the process and would gladly use her for future planning as well.

Personal and Professional

She took her time to get to know me and my family and did a wonderful job guiding through my legal matters. She made wonderful suggestions that improved the end results. She also made sure I was fully educated and informed on the subject matter. I have no legal background, so this was much appreci...ated. She was easy to contact and very professional to my wife and I. We are both very grateful for her help and will use her in the future if a legal matter arises.

Excellent Attorney

I consulted with Melissa about getting a will started. She was more than helpful with explaining the process and recommendations. Since then, I have recommended Melissa to my parents so that they can get a will started to secure their assets as well. Highly recommend!
