We provide solutions that offer hope and transparency to our clients. We also provide a place where communication and empowerment are welcome, and a belief in change and accessibility is encouraged.
Eleanor’s Story
When the basement of Eleanor’s home flooded, she called in a repair service. They botched the job, but that didn’t stop them from keeping Eleanor’s money. Because she is blind and low income, the company never imagined Eleanor could hire a lawyer to get justice. They were wrong.
