I’m sorry you feel this way. This is an anonymous post. I ask my potential clients to look at the other reviews to get an accurate picture of me.
"I endorse this lawyer for her conscientious and professional attention to the case. I've dealt with her both as an opposing counsel and as a colleague in matters where we were lawyers in a case of interest to us. Melissa is friendly, compassionate and gives attention to detail which is very important in our business. I could recommend her without reservation and in fact have done so when I have been unable because of scheduling to handle a case myself."
"Ms. Cantwell is a great attorney. I would never hesitate to refer clients to her. Ms. Cantwell is very effective and efficient in representing her clients. She cares deeply for her clients and is passionate about her work. Ms. Cantwell is a pleasure to work with and I hope to work with her again in the future."
"Ms. Cantwell has provided excellent legal representation to her clients and works diligently to ensure their success in all her representative matters."
