Smart, responsive, insightful
Susan Rosen was an excellent attorney for the financial / real estate contractual issue we faced. She did a fine job and we got what we wanted out of the settlement. She was "no nonsense" - to the point and very realistic in what we should expect. I'd use her services again in a hear beat!
