Elizabeth Savage fights hard for her clients. She gave my case all of the time and attention needed to be successful at trial. Not only were the opposing party’s initial claims dismissed, but Elizabeth won me a judgement in the counter-suit. When the opposing party appealed, she successfully negotiated a settlement that I am happy with. Elizabeth really listened, and she put a lot of thought and care into each part of the litigation process. Highly recommend.
