SATISFIED! Ms. Maria was my attorney and she was a delight to work with. The scary part is the initial few months of waiting. In that I would recommend giving updates every 30days or so. Once negations began things moved MUCH quicker. Maria communicated with updates and negotiated WELL on my behalf.
I had an amazing experience working with Maria at Ankin Law. She was professional, knowledgeable, and kept me informed every step of the way. Her communication was excellent.
