Our family consulted Ms. Orlando about financial aid for our 97 year old father. Three other firms, which charged TWICE as much, had told us that he did not qualify for the aid program. Amy got us a the aid, even retroactive for three months, within two weeks of engaging her services. She is very helpful, explains matters fully, and does not rush you out of the office like others we have consulted. HIGHEST RECOMMENDATION.

I was very impressed working with Amy on conservator and estate planning issues. She handled herself in a very professional manner and was quite knowledgeable. She is excellent at presenting the options available and then recommending the best course of action. She is very competent and I feel confident that my best interests are represented. Amy was a huge improvement over previous lawyers I had worked with.

When Amy was assigned my case she immediately made me feel that my problems were in good hands. Realizing her knowledge of the issues I had and feeling comfortable with her down to earth personality allowed me to trust her abilities.
