This was my first time using this firm and was so appreciative of all the updated calls even for paper work or any reminders. I was in a car accidents and the last lawyer I had decided after holding my information for almost 3 months decided he couldn’t do it and let me know after he close my first accident case which took almost six months who didn’t call or text I had to find things the day of and when ask how would I rate them and brought it to they attention there was no care in there words at all of a so call apologize. It’s hard to find people that still recognize people . Love people and are for people and know how to be professional at all times. This is the place . Thanks Ms Shelton …
