Replied last September 08, 2026Thank you for your honesty. Fighting hard for my clients in the courtroom is something I take seriously, and I'm glad that came through for you. I also hear you on the phone calls. Since then, we've worked hard to improve our communication. Every client now has my cell phone number, and when I'm in court, my team is available as backup so no one is left waiting for an answer. Feedback like yours helped make that happen.
