Disability case
I took my documents to Mr. Galdean to see if there was anything I could do to stop collections that were retaliation. He explained everything in detail. I was so anxious when I went in. He made me feel calm because he is very friendly and very knowledgeable. He was available to me when I called, after our meeting. The relief I feel has no price. Thank you so much for your kindness and your help.
