Honest & hepful
I was in a car accident a year ago and attorney Richard Sklare was very helpful every step of the way. From helping me with my property damage, helping me establish my car rental. Every time I called he was available to talk to me. When it came time for the settlement I can honestly say I was HAPPY.
