Everyone I have spoke to was super nice! Even if they didn't take my case, they gave me really good information. I even called back a few days later with another question and talked to melody again! She was super knowledgable and didn't make me feel like I was wasting her time or stupid. If I ever need a lawyer again I am def calling to see if its something they can help with!

From the start service was outstanding. The intake staff gathered necessary information from me and answered all of my questions. I was then assigned to a paralegal who returned my calls and followed up as agreed. When I had concerns throughout the process no one ghosted me. My calls were always returned timely. When it was time to discuss my settlement the atty explained everything and advised of the process should I choose litigation. I highly recommend Council and Associates for your legal needs.

I was turned down by three big law firms because they claimed my case wasn't big enough I was referred to council and Associates,LLC when I tell you they communicated often I didn't even get a chance to call them because they always reached out to communicate the updates on my case. They fought for my case like it was a million dollar case I'm sooo pleased with this Law firm. Great customer/Client service hands down. Thank you Council and Associates Team keep up the great work and continue making a difference.
