If you need a “ Closer”, go see Troy. Troy has been one of the best attorneys I have ever worked with. I don’t typically give reviews but after the last case Troy helped me settle out of court, I won’t hesitate to use Troy again! Thanks for all you do Troy !
Daniel E., Google
I left a voicemail for Tom late Sunday evening and received a phone call first thing the next morning.
Tom was very quick to reply to any questions I had, and if he was caught up in a meeting, he was sure to return my call promptly.
Tom provided sound and logical advice, during a very stressful and uncertain time. At times I asked him to be more aggressive and was often met with the pros and cons of that decision, allowing me to understand the approach and thought process behind his strategy.
Ultimately he provided options for several paths for us to take, worked swiftly, and got us where we needed to be.
He reached out several times to check on my sanity and make sure I was good.
As someone with very high expectations, I would highly recommend his services. He provided expertise that proved to be successful, and also took the time to make sure I was emotionally solid.
Tom assisted with me with a 50% / 50% ownership conflict.
