Good service, no endless phone calls
I'm not an attorney, so I'm probably not really qualified to review one, but the Binders did a good job making sure I didn't need to understand the legal jargon to wrap my head around my case. No time wasting, straight to the point, couldn't ask for more.

What To expect
Richard's knowledge of the law is extensive! I was able to contact him anytime I felt I had more to input about my case and I wasn't brushed off. By the way a real human answers the phone at their office all the time.
