Melissa helped navigate a very difficult business relationship. She was responsive and an extremely helpful confidante to work through problems, trepidations, and creating a path forward. I can't say enough good things about my experience with her, and I feel confident knowing Melissa is there if needed again. Worth every dollar!

Melissa is such an intelligent, focused, and professional attorney, you almost don't realize she is also compassionate and understanding of everything wrapped up in a lawsuit. She can handle any type of claim and any type of horrible opposing counsel. She doesn't flinch from any scare tactics of her colleagues or challenges with a case. I can't recommend her enough.

Melissa is a valuable resource not only in providing employment law information right at your fingertips, but also a great litigation lawyer who's thorough and determined. Any time our business has had complicated or even simple questions, she's always been available and quick to provide an answer as well as background information that helps us make the best decision for our business. I highly recommend her!

Melissa is an amazing attorney that has helped us through several issues at our optometry practice. She always makes things easy to understand, educates us to all the options, and helps carry out the actions when needed. We couldn't be more happy to have her in our corner and you should have her in yours if you need a great lawyer!
