"She's Tough and Knows Her Stuff!"

I hired her multiple times. Probate matter most recently. My opponents hired "sharks." I overheard one of their attorneys underestimating Mrs. Whitaker in the hallway. My opponents laughed in agreement---they aren't laughing anymore! Not only did Angela get me my rightful share, her fees were $14,000 less than what my opponents paid their lawyers. And even sweeter was the fact that I was stress-free, paying Angela on a payment plan. On some days, my opponents couldn't reach the lawyers that they were so proud to hire. While I have never had trouble reaching Mrs. Whitaker. She gave me her personal cell phone and made it clear to me that I was welcome to call her and that I can ask her any question whenever I need. I can't see myself hiring anyone but her at this point.
