Working with Bruce and his team was such a positive experience. My case had a lot of history and involved work in multiple states. Bruce coordinated the entire process from start to finish with professionalism and integrity. I was kept up to date with the progress and options were presented to me so that I was able to make an informed decision. I appreciate the personal approach and the consideration for my individual needs.

Bruce handled my divorce. My divorce was atypical from the very beginning since my husband had made off with our financial records (long story). I hired Bruce because I had heard he was an excellent litigator; as it turned out, there was no litigation involved. He was also excellent at working a case through to completion. His drafting of the documents involved, alone, was copious work. Bruce was patient and good-spirited throughout. He always responded to my phone calls promptly. He understood that it was an ordeal for me and that money was tight. Opposing counsel was most unpleasant, always raising a ruckus over some tidbit or another (like when he assigned an associate in his firm a small portion of my case) but I could still laugh her off -- I knew I had the better attorney in my corner.
