I had a lot of questions and concerns, and Daniel was patient and clear every step of the way. He explained things in a way I could understand and didn’t make me feel rushed or judged. I’m very grateful for the help I received from Daniel and his team.

$150 CONSULTATION FEE . FOR A LAWYER FRESH OUT OF LAW SCHOOL? UNBELIEVABLE. THEY SHOULD ADVERTISE THIS TO SAVE PEOPLES TIME AT LEAST.
