"Grateful for the professional, supportive and realistic advice from Counsel, Jillian Allen. Jillian was able to reign in 22 years of emotion to achieve our legal goal with a quick result that was only delayed by opposing counsel's negligence. Jillian is a great listener that can tune out the static to achieve results without costing a fortune. So grateful to close this chapter with a great result. Way to go Jillian Allen!"

"I will recommend Fresh Legal to everyone, specifically Maryn Marsland. She was very calm, patient and kind with the process of signing our marriage contract. Her ability to explain things in a manner that I understood was very appreciated as the terminology/vocabulary of Law can be confusing to me. All around great lawyer and great person."

"I assisted my brother throughout his legal journey with a separation. Alison Southern was the best referral anyone could have provided to us. She was extremely professional even though opposing counsel was not. Alison was empathetic and extremely knowledgeable in her field. My brother’s case was not straightforward. I cannot say enough about Alison and I definitely would not hesitate to recommend her to anyone. She absolutely helped immensely with a stressful situation."
