The lawyers you'll work with
A note from Anne
I opened this firm in 2011 because I kept hearing the same thing: people could not get their lawyer on the phone. So we keep one rule. If you call us, an attorney calls you back within one business day. You will know who is working on your file, and what it will cost, before we start.
