Sam did a great job fighting for what I wanted and was very knowledgeable along the way. I came a long way from where I started with Sam compared where we ended up settling. He knows his stuff and will tell you realistically where you stand and gives you insight on both best and worst case scenarios. From a client stand point I didn't know anything about divorce and law and needed information about how the process worked and Sam again did a great job with any questions I had and walked me through the process of divorce and the time table of it all. I felt like Sam truly cared about me, my situation, and getting me the results that I was striving for. Overall I am very happy I choose Sam as my lawyer.
Sam made the whole process of my divorce as easy as possible. He was open and up front about what to expect throughout. I appreciated his honesty and excellent communication. He made sure things moved along timely and kept me apprised of where we were at in the process.
Sam was great to work with and made everything so easy! This was a difficult time in my life and he set my mind at ease! Sam was always easy to get a hold of and quick to respond to my messages and emails!
Sam assisted me with several key legal issues and he is great to work with and really takes the time to understand your needs.
I have known Sam for many years. When I was going through my divorce I could think of no one else I would rather have walk me through such an trying time than him. Divorces are stressful but Sam's expertise and calming demeanor were very reassuring every step of the way. Sam answered all of my legal questions very promptly and in great detail. I would not hesitate to use Sam again for any of my future legal needs.
