Fortunately, My wife and I have only used M,W&B for happy things.... Copywriting a Business name, a book (in its early stages), and several Real Estate transactions. Everyone in this firm is top notch and respectful of our goals, time and money. This is the way it should be! This firm is literally what makes Asheville, Asheville and that's a good thing!

I emailed this law firm to help with basic questions I had about copyright and taxes for online domestic sales. They advertise copyright and tax law on their website, and I gave my questions in an email ahead of time. They directed me to lawyer #1 (cant remember her name) and she could answer some of my copyright questions, but none of the tax questions. She was also SUPER distracted on the phone, speaking very slowly and even stopping quite a bit, and making a good 10 minutes worth of small talk (my business happens to be a hobby of hers, so I was charged for her personal interest). At one point, she even said, "I'm sorry, I'm distracted." ...not something you want to hear at $250/hour. I heard nothing in the background, not sure what she was doing, scrolling through her phone?? who knows She directed my tax questions to another attorney, so enter lawyer #2 (again, cant remember her name). My first question was, "do I need to charge sales tax for an online domestic sale?" she couldn't answer that or any of my other basic tax questions (once again, submitted ahead of time and now this lawyer was recommended as the one to talk to by a fellow attorney in the firm). I literally got no information from that phone call, but was still billed for it. Lawyer #2 wanted to "research" these questions and promised "she would try to keep it under 2 hours at $250/hour." seriously... huge waste of time and money.

The best

Thank you for your services.

Kathleen Rodberg was the attorney on our case and I must say, her service, her knowledge, her professionionalism, and her determination left me in awe. She is a consummate professional that raises the bar (no pun intended). I will forever compare any other attorneys I may need to use to her. She is the standard, as far as I am concerned.

We have used MWB for a number of legal matters over the years. Rebecca Crandall has helped with trademark and intellectual property rights. Matt Roberson helped successfully collect unpaid accounts. Joe McGuire even stepped in to help encourage our insurance company to perform as provided in our policy. This firm consistently has the right people with the right skills each time we need advice or assistance. We continue to highly recommend them to our friends and associates.

I worked closely with Doris Loomis and Kathleen Rodberg over a multi-year process that included both power of attorney decisions and estate management. Both attorneys were timely, well-informed, no-nonsense and most importantly guided me and my family through a complex process successfully.

Have used this firm since we have lived in Asheville (some nine years) and have been very impressed with. All the lawyers I've been in touch with have been great, as have been their seminars.

As an elder law practitioner in Southeastern North Carolina, I have the good fortune to work with Kathleen Rodberg and Andy Atherton on the NC Bar Association Council for Elder Law and Special Needs. Kathleen and Andy demonstrate all of the best skills you would want in an attorney: trustworthiness, competency, professionalism, sound judgment, vast knowledge and experience, and most of all a keen compassion for seniors in need. I often refer clients to Kathleen and Andy because I know their clients are in capable hands at McGuire Wood & Bissette!
