Joel has handled several personal cases and many business cases for me. It's nice to be able to turn to just one person you can count on instead of having to look for someone new for each different case. He and his staff are very nice and easy to talk to. He's handled my real estate closings, property damage from renters, owner finance transactions, business contracts and more!
