Litigation lawyer | Mar 07

Relationship: Worked for lawyer

"I worked with Tony for approximately a year and a half on various matters, including personal injury, probate (wills, trusts, and estate planning), contracts, and civil and commercial litigation. I've always found him to be an extremely responsive attorney to his clients, going out of his way to be accessible to them and answer their questions, keeping them advised of the status and position of their cases. He is always looking to do the most thorough job to advance their interests, while also keeping in mind their needs for the most cost-effective and efficient outcomes. That is a rare and difficult balance to achieve."
