Excellent Attorney

I consulted with Mr. Spillers regarding a timber pirate issue several years ago. He was professional, VERY helpful, returned calls and emails in a timely manner even though his area of practice made retaining his firm not advisable he graciously talked with me and pointed me in right directions. I ...consider him a "David' who was able to take down what looked to me like a Goliath of a problem. Forever grateful.
