Gregory Housewirth, Divorce and separation Attorney
Relationship: Opposing Counsel on matter
Wendy does an excellent job representing her clients. In an era when so many lawyers are perceived as being in it only for themselves, Wendy truly cares about the needs of her clients.
Jerold Mitchell, Divorce and separation Attorney
Relationship: Opposing Counsel on matter
I had the pleasure of working with Wendy and have come to respect her dedication and professionalism. Wendy's pragmatic and compassionate approach to resolving disputes is a benefit not only to her clients, but to the legal community as well. I endorse this lawyer.
