“Breanna communicates essential information when it’s necessary without over communicating which can become costly, she is very considerate. I know not all clients are as calm and patient in demeanor as I am, but I hope everyone is aware of how diligently you work to hold our trust. The knowledge basis of law you provide is instrumental in helping people like me to not have to endure the time cost of learning law and makes me feel well represented in a way I could not achieve on my own, at least not very well on my own. Breanna and the firm hold my appreciation and gratitude. You do this very well, I hope others take note and don’t only view things as a win loss zero sum game. Leveraging your knowledge to spare myself time removes the heaviest burden when dealing with domestic relations issues, especially when children are involved. Thank you.” – Josh B
