Client Reviews
"Sam is great to work with. He was very competent and had lots of insight/ advice."
"In an effort to relieve us of some stress and find a solution in our matter, we hired Sam to work with a very aggressive party. We knew we wouldn't be able to find a solution on our own. From the beginning, he communicated quickly and efficiently, not only with us, but also the other party. We also appreciated that we never felt pressure from Sam to make a decision one way or another. He was there to provide feedback and knowledge. In the future if we were to need someone to represent us, we would hire Sam. Thank you for your work and appreciate you being considerate of the hours you were working on this job."
