Superb legal service

Attorney Floyd McKissick Jr has been our family attorney for the past 20+ years and during this period he has consistently provided us with superb legal counsel. His services have ranged from guidance with our estate planning (setting up Will(s), asset management, etc.) to assistance with personal an...d business matters that all resulted in positive outcomes. We have always found Floyd to be courteous, professional and a brilliant mind which is why we regard him as expert in the vast field of law. If my family and I were to rate Floyd on a scale of 1-10 for the services he has provided us over the years, without hesitation he would receive a 10! dcl
