Working with Mr. Moriarty was very easy. He is knowledgable, direct and professional. He is also very compassionate and that helped put my mind to ease during the difficult dispute I had. I used his services for a family law dispute and he handled everything in a very impressive manner. He was easy to reach including email, text and phone calls, kept me updated on everything the entire time and went above and beyond to make sure I received the best outcome. I definitely recommend Mr. Moriarty without any reservations and will use his services again if needed.

We needed a lawyer to handle a small annuity claim concerning a Trust Account issue following my mothers death last year.. Two lawyers I contacted earlier did not return calls, and the third lawyer did not seem to be organized or understand the issue fully. After 7 months of phone calling, letter writing, and filling out forms we made no progress.. Additionally, dealing with the annuity company and prior lawyer had become stressful. When Mr. Moriarty took over the claim, he handle the problem easily. He knew who to talk to, how to negotiate possible solutions, and finally obtain the needed information and forms to settle the claim. For me it was a relief to have Mr. Moriarty acting on our behalf, with his professional knowledge, and his ability to filter through the red tape, and his aptitude to foresee a solution.
