Review Julia Wei

Expert & Pragmatic for the Real Estate Investor

Posted by

As a real estate investor, Julia and her firm are a critical business partner for me for over 5 years. As I consider new investments, seek to maximize my existing properties and exit them, I always make sure to run my key transactions and strategy through them. She's really efficient & effective at spotting the key issues I need to be concerned about. I get pragmatic legal advice that is in context of the business considerations I have.
This review is from a person who hired this attorney.
