handled a legal matter for me

I asked Ms. Mawhinney to find out about a family legal matter related to a deed and inheritance. She is a good communicator and good listener, did the research and turned it around in a very efficient way.

Outstanding Representation

Mrs. Mawhinney is a highly professional coverage and appellate attorney who helped navigate my company through some complicated and high profile cases. She is thorough, responsive, and very adept at explaining complicated legal issues in an informal, yet professional, atmosphere. She is very astute t...o provide legal services in a personal manner that resonates very well with adjusters, managers, and executives, which is a trait that I greatly appreciate. In particular, Mrs. Mawhinney demonstrated a propensity of excellent client/customer relationships. In other words, adjusters with my company specifically request their files are assigned to Mrs. Mawhinney based on her ability to cultivate relationships with them directly. More importantly, her analytical and negotiation skills yield fantastic results on behalf of the company. I find her to provide extremely effective legal counsel with respect to her timely client correspondence, review and assessment of files, and attention to detail. I also noticed at a recent mediation that Mrs. Mawhinney earned the respect of other attorneys, mainly due to her ability to take charge and accomplish the task at hand. She has the background to handle complex legal matters and demonstrated the requisite skillset to address a wide variety of legal problems that arise during the course of a case. Opposing counsels were expressing their appreciation to work with Mrs. Mawhinney and praised my company for its handling of the case. Mrs. Mawhinney's dedication to obtaining positive results is apparent in how she approaches each case with the necessary zeal to obtain the best results, which certainly inures the company's benefit as apparent at the recent mediation. I highly recommend Mrs. Mawhinney based on her professionalism, client/customer relationships, and ability to obtain positive results on the company's behalf. She is a zealous advocate for the company and works tireless to keep us informed of case updates. She is a pleasure to work with.
