From start to finish I was enormously pleased with the way Andrew Poole handled my divorce. He listened to what was important to me and delivered exactly that. He went the extra mile every step of the way. He was always accessible and extremely accomodating and flexible with scheduling apppointments. He was detail oriented and brought to my attention many things I would not have considered in a divorce. He always keep my best interest in mind. My divorce was handled quickly without some of the lengthy delays I've seen many go through. I am 100% satisfied with my custody agreement and financial situation post divorce. I was very happy Andrew's rates, this divorce costed less than I had anticipated. He handled delicate situations professionally and with kindness. He made an unpleasant situation as painless as possible. He is an excellent advocate and I would go back to him in a second if I needed any legal representation in the future.

If you hold off on your personal injury claim, the statute of limitations could pass you buy. Moreover, waiting potentially helps the other side get a head start, and it could mean your attorney has less time to prepare your strategy.
