Thorough, concise, knowledgeable and careing

Mr. Borts assisted my husband and I with our adoption and immigration matters. He explained the process in full detail and has extensive knowledge in family court and immigration law. Both of the cases were fully resolved quickly and smoothly. We are very grateful for all he did for us. Attorney Bort...s in the only attorney we trust.
