Michelle came to me through Thomas Jefferson School of Law free legal aid as a volunteer. From day #1 she was on top of my case about the condo owner above mine whose unit flooded mine by a broken toilet tank. He refused to accept liability so my insurance had to step in, and $11,000 later there were still costs I had to pay out of pocket, roughly $3,000. After many notices for him to reimburse me, I sued in Small Claims Court. It took 1 1/2 years. Michelle came in three weeks before trial, met with me in her office, and gave me questions she would likely ask me in court. At trial, she asked, I responded confidently since I was well prepared, and the judge quickly began listing most of the amounts I requested. Michelle was a star, not wasting any words, and together we got a big WIN! I couldn’t have been in smarter hands! Thanks for all your help, Michelle!
Michelle assisted my family and I with legal aid regarding a landlord/tenant case. She listened to our case and paid close attention to the details we provided. We had previously visited other attorneys who did not provide us with the same amount of attention Michelle did. It is easy to communicate with her and I never had an issue trying to contact her via phone or email. At the end, she was able to help us resolve our issue in a timely manner and get us the results we wanted.
