Long Time Client

I, too, have been a client of Paul Simmerly since 1997. He supported me on 3 separate legal issues to date. I always felt well at ease, and was finally able to sleep at night, with a favorable outcome, And he has high integrity. If he feels he isn't right or able to handle your case with tota...l expertise, he will give an excellent referral, as he did with my condo association during a faulty construction/dry rot legal issue. Highly recommended.
