Effective and thorough

She stands firm. I am very satisfied. Renee represented me through an 8 month long knock-down drag-out divorce against one of the highest priced lawyers in Warren County. Effective and insightful in all aspects - she did it all. And knows her stuff. I give her my highest recommendation.

Renee is excellent !

I have been a client of Renee's for about 12 years now. She is an excellent attorney, and the things she has done to put my mind at ease have been priceless. I wouldn't go into a courtroom or a hearing without Renee by my side. If you want the best, then she is it. She has vast knowledge of the law, ...and also has excellent skills in a courtroom with litigation etc. She is aggressive, and stands firm when representing you. I was involved with a child custody/ visitation and child support case. I was so nervous and scared. At my very first meeting with Renee, she immediately put me at ease, and explained the proceedings and possible outcomes in a way that is understandable. She is very easy to relate to as well, which makes a huge difference when explaining your situation. With Renee, you have an excellant attorney, someone that you can trust, someone who is dependable, someone who is honest , and someone who is truly there to help each client that she has, and gives you nothing less than 100% in doing so.
