Extremely knowledgeable

Posted by

Honest and extremely knowledgeable Once again, I want to thank Sandra M Prowley for a job well done. Sandra was very successful in assisting me in my case, but more importantly she was always available for my family if we had a questions or concerns. I contacted several law firms, and Sandra was confident when the initial contact occurred because of her vast knowledge and experience of over 16 years. We had the best lawyer on our side. Thank you again!!

Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

Sandra M. Prowley is dedicated to the practice of law and works very hard to get the best results for her clients. She is an attorney who will go the extra mile. I have known Ms. Prowley for more than 20 years. In 2015, I had the pleasure of working with Ms. Prowley at a custody and visitation trial practice program where we sharpened our trial skills. She is a zealous advocate who is always learning about better ways to serve her clients.
