Ms. Tower...
Dear Sterling, Thank you for this excellent review! As a client, you have also lived up to your name. Your no-nonsense attitude made you a pleasure to represent. Your confidence in me allowed me to think outside the box. You've helped me grow as an attorney and while I've always been attuned, I'm listening to clients' ideas in a new light, ever since. Geanine

Child custody/ Visitation
My son's mother denied me visitation and was trying to remove me from my son's life. Ms Towers was able to get me not only visitation with my son, but joint custody. Ms Towers was able to get me visitation with my son within days . Ms.Towers was able to bring my family together .
