STAY AWAY

She will find a way to keep your money , I was selling my property but the sale fell through before going to closing . I asked for a partial refund multiple times for few weeks and kept getting the run around until she finally told me that you get nothing . not to mention it takes forever to get anyt...hing accomplished . It was a terrible experience

PPE Procurement Attorney and Paymaster

Savy is awesome. I’ve been a PPE broker since March 2020. I was unable to close transactions. Every time my deals went a2a, I never knew what was happening, and the deal would never close. Something had to change. Another broker group recommended her, and our group decided to use her as well. Ins...tead of submitting our orders to the Seller’s brokers or Seller’s attorney, we now submit our docs to Savy, and she takes care of the rest. She verifies the buyer, works with buyers attorney to revise the as needed. She also works with the buyers banker to verify funds prior to submitting the order to the Sellers attorney. she’s present at every a2a. She knows all the players involved, and she made all the difference! Thank you Savy !!!

Dropped the ball

Ms. grant was hired to represent me and was not present during the initial court date and I'm not sure why. She also made inappropriate comments about the defendant to me, saying he was incredibly "good looking", as I was the plaintiff. I was shocked and disappointed by her lack of professionalism. W...hen I met with her for the consultation, she presented herself as a confident, tough, and determined attorney ready to represent me. I trusted in that. I ended up seeking legal counsel from someone else that I can only say positive things about.

Criminal defense

Savy was the best choice I made. Unfortunately I did something bad and was arrested. I interviewed several lawyers. Savy sat with me and explained the charges and she told me straight from the beginning, I don't think your not going to jail. Savy said the question will be how many years. She also sai...d sometimes she may be able to file motion based on the law and maybe we could win. She filed many different motions. All I know is I thought I was going to jail. After she filed motion and we started hearings, the prosecutor offered probation and I was so happy. Savy worked hard to protect me. She is a good lawyer that cares.

The Best

Savy was able to negotiate a resolution with my adversary after attempting same with several other attorneys who did not even come close to the level of success. If you want someone to advocate on your behalf and be successful in court- do yourself a favor and hire Savy.
