Philosophy and Approach
A good lawyer is one who not only listens, but applies incoming knowledge appropriately.
A lawyer should never judge their clients, but instead understand their circumstances and situation.
The trust that lies between a lawyer and their client should never be broken.
Lead with kindness, but use your determination and strength as a asset.
