Relationship: Worked together on matter
I have had the good fortune of knowing Andrew throughout law school and working with him regularly since then. In my opinion, he cares genuinely for his clients and does a wonderful job explaining steps of the legal process to his and our clients. He is a pleasure to work with and I would recommend his services without reservation.
