This lawyer spent a lot of time with me going over my options, as well as time on finding out important things pertaining to why I was there which was real-estate related . He was very kind ,respectful, knowledgeable, and much more as well as HONEST! Which to me honesty goes a long way especially dealing with a lawyer! He could of just took my money and did what I came for but before I committed he was realistic and honest about the situation and advised I take time to think about what I want to do and directed me how to further look into things to better come to a decision instead of jumping into
