Replied last March 08, 2019This review is absolutely false! Clearly, this was written by someone who did not want to be challenged as to their allegations hence it is anonymous! I cannot specifically address any of this review as I do not know who this is. However I can say , I am never scattered Or unprepared and I do not lie ! I take my clients cases very seriously and represent everyone to the best of my ability . This is reflected in all of my other reviews.
