I have worked with Harold for over 25 years and have never been disappointed with his work and representation. He goes over and beyond in understanding the issues at hand, anticipates issues that might arise and produces documents that protect against the unexpected. He listens, never rushes and always provides sage counsel. I have recommended Harold to a number of friends and will continue to do so.
