Simply phenomenal from start to finish. we could not have had a more kind and considerate lawyer. Karen Zahka gave our case all the time and attention that was needed to be successful during very difficult proceedings. My husband and I never once was treated as anything other than a valuable client by Ms. Zahka. We also appreciated working with people that care for us on a personal level instead of just handling us as a "case". Ms. Zahka was completely understanding, professional and worked very diligently to the end, and we were so grateful. Highly recommend!!

Karen was professional, compassionate and confident at all times throughout this three and a half year process.
