Keith Allen
Replied last February 21, 2012When I relocated my office, all clients were notified by mail at their last known address. Several clients had relocated without notifying my office and may have not received a copy of the notice. The only client that has had any complaint against me is one who has been trying to avoid paying the bill they owe. The fact is, EVERY telephone call to my office is responded to within 24-48 hours. The client who posted this comment owes money for over a year with no payments and is upset that I sent them to collections.
