"Kali is awesome and very professional. She kept me up-to-date with my case and attended to my questions and even text messages right away. Honest and straight the point, even going above and beyond to get my case dismissed. 100 percent recommend this firm."

"I reached out to Kali for my mother’s case which was a complicated case. I felt very lost when looking for help however when I spoke to Kali she made me feel comfortable and took her time to ask me questions to understand the case & was very honest with the options as well as the outcome that we could of faced. As we proceed with the case she was fast & effective with solving my mother’s case, not to mention patient and very knowledgeable. She always took her time to explain every step of the way. In less than a month she was able to clean my mother’s record. Very happy with her communication and service I cannot recommend her enough!"
