Even though over 95% of all cases are settled before trial, few people consider the difference in a case that is settled...

As a designated Personal Family Lawyer, my firm handles things differently. We will explain more during your free 15-minute Discovery call Zoom meeting, which you can book on my website by selecting "Book meeting" in the upper right corner.
