Sam Schlein is absolutely wonderful! He kept me updated through the entire process and answered every question I had in a very timely manner. He is also a very kind and caring person.

"I had the pleasure of working with Sam when I acted as co-counsel with his firm (Marshall & Morrow) on a significant civil rights case. I was impressed with Sam's ability to quickly get up to speed on the case's legal and factual issues. Sam's work ethic is excellent, as well as his attention to detail; both traits that you want in a lawyer."
