"My case resulted in a dismissal and I think Bennita did well getting us to that point. I connected with Bennita almost instantly due to our shared interest in diversity and equality, so I believe it was divine intervention that she was assigned to my case. She is very friendly, frank and her diverse background in family law was very helpful in my case. In different circumstances I would include her in my circle of friends and I hope that she would do the same."

"​Both Allie and Stephanie did a great job. Allie took over at the end when there was some non-sense from my soon to be ex. She stepped right where Stephanie left off and knew exactly what was going on. I have nothing but the highest praise for Stephanie. She is a jewel with a great hand shake. I appreciate her forthrightness, honesty and genuine care for me. I loved her from the beginning.​"

Your system is very good. Please continue what you do."
