"Yes. Hire John Roy. He did his research. He knew how to apply his knowledge. His mere presence scared the crap out of the lawyers across the table. He managed our expectations. He then exceeded our expectations. Paying him saved us more money than we would have had to pay without him. Please do yourself the favor of working with him."
