Cons
1
Lengthy case resolution timelines, with some clients feeling the process took too long
“The only negative thing I can share is that it took way too long to come to a conclusion IMO and communication with the court/prosecutor seemed very "wishy washy" at times, but that's typical when dealing with "the system".”

Occasional communication challenges or delays, leaving some clients feeling uninformed at times
“It is not often you find a lawyer who is willing to listen to your story. Not just listen and then try to play the court system.”
