Lawrence Hartlaub, Real estate Attorney on Dec 1, 2014
Relationship: Worked together on matter
I have known Katie for several years. We have worked together on some real estate and probate matters. She is very thorough, insightful, knowledgeable, able to grasp new concepts and apply the client's fact pattern to the law - thus providing the best available outcome for the client. She regularly expresses her concerns for her clients - not just another day in the office. I can highly recommend Katie for all of her practice areas.
