Rob Goodman has always gone above and beyond when dealing with any and all matters pertaining to my business. I trust him with any decisions I need guidance and legal representation on.

Whoever the receptionist is, is kind of a b*tch and very unhelpful. Doesn't provide the information you might need and won't bother to transfer you to anyone who may know better than she does.
