Truly professional
Jamy was proactive the moment I contacted him in regards my estate planning. I am not a native english speaker and with all legal terms it can get confusing. He was absolutely patience, attention to details, went above and beyond of what we expected. My husband and I highly recommend Jamy and his legal firm. Truly a professional!
