I am hired by clients to do the best job possible every time out, it's that simple. A large part of that task is listening to and addressing the client's concerns and coming up with creative but sensible ways to solve the client's problem. People tend to forget that real individuals are involved with legal problems, so ultimately, it is my responsibility to make sure my client does not get lost in the legal maze, but instead comes through feeling that justice has been served on their behalf.
