Used the facts and his time to win, perfect in execution....

Andrew was in constant contact via e-mail, phone, and postal service contact, and represented me in court without my having to be present, and used the facts of the case (an operating a motor vehicle while talking on a cell phone) to get an acquittal. He sent a subpena to my cell company, and used t...he phone records to prove my innocence, and was the perfect representative. He kept me in the loop, and used all avenues to keep me abreast of the situation, and what I needed to do, all while making me feel like I was his only professional concern. Very strong communication skills, and extremely empathetic. He's the man for your needs....

More That Satisfied...Grateful!

I wish my first contact with Andrew had been back in 2006. However, I found truth in the saying "better late than never." Without Andrew's services, I would have forfeited on some valuable employee benefits. I think he should file a law suit against federal agencies mandating responsibility for in...forming employees of their benefits particularly those employee who also serve part-time in the Armed Forces. So many have lost out on so much! I am extremely grateful Andrew was my attorney and would not hestitate to seek out his services if needed in the future.

Great job on USERRA Issue...

I am attorney who needed strong representation on my behalf. Andrew did an bang-up job on a tough USERRA issue I had, ultimately we ended up with a strong settlement. I recommend him to anyone who needs a competent advocate on their behalf.
