Review Austin Anderson

Very professional, gives you several perspectives on your case to help you decide how to move forward

Posted by

I went in for a consultation with Austin first before deciding to hire him. The reason I went with him over several other lawyers I had met with is because he seemed more honest. He didn't tell me what I wanted to hear, but was a realist about my case. At the same time, he showed confidence and an optimistic nature. While working on my case, he made sure that everything was handled in a timely manner. This certainly eases ones mind when you are trying to remain focused on work rather than your case. Austin is a down-to-earth person, which makes it very easy for him to relate to his clients. He made sure to get back to me as soon as he could whenever I had any questions and maintained a professional demeanor throughout my case. I would recommend his services to anyone looking for a good, fair lawyer.
