Replied last October 05, 2016I just noticed this review and am surprised to say the least. I have had no client voice any complaint like this to me. I am very fortunate to have many local attorneys refer cases to me. I always try to do the best that can be done for my clients. Facts do matter.

I always want to please a client but i accept that is not always possible.
