My Counselor

Mr. Schur put me at ease in our first conversation. He explained everything in plain language, best/worst case scenario's. Mr. Schur let me know exactly what to do and what to expect. He made me feel completely comfortable in what can be a trying ordeal. A great attorney and a better man.
