What recent reviews say

Five-star reviewers praised clear legal guidance and fast outcomes, but one-star complaints center on dropped calls, unanswered phones, and staff dismissiveness. Limited review detail on foreclosure-specific work.

Based on limited recent reviews, so treat this as low-confidence.
