"I had the pleasure of knowing and working with Margaret in Law School. Her passion and intellect made her easy to distinguish amongst our classmates, and those skills continue to set her apart today. I have relied on Margaret's assistance with several matters in Randolph County, and I have never regretted the decision for an instant."
