CLIENT TESTIMONIALS

I have known Lindsay Dunn for many years, she is a smart, hard working passionate lawyer with knowledge beyond her years and who goes above and beyond for her clients, I have worked with her in a professional capacity and as a client and I would recommend her services to everyone.

Lance handled my divorce, I am extremely satisfied with the outcome, his performance and professionalism was inspiring !!!! Of all of the lawyers in Chester County it is my opinion he is the best.

Tim Rayne and I recently completed a ‘trip and fall’ lawsuit. I have never been in any litigation before. It is a lengthy procedure but Tim assisted me in understanding the step by step process and counseled me on my role in the litigation. I found him to be extremely knowledgeable of the law down to the letter. He is professional and well spoken. Do not let his mild manner fool you. He is well prepared and when he defends he changes into an aggressive defender of his client. I would recommend Tim if you need a real pro who gets results.

Denise

Caroline and her team represented me for a DUI I was charged with back in 2021 where the state trooper lied about everything from why he charged me with a DUI, because I was not intoxicated, to the reason why he even pulled me over to begin with which was unlawful. Caroline, Mary, Donna, and everyone who was on my case actually listened to me, believed me that I was telling the truth and proved it with video and by catching the trooper on the stand lying. This past over three years have been probably the toughest of my life, because of this stopping me from moving to Phoenix, and the care and compassion that Caroline showed toward me and what was right is incomparable and priceless to what I’ve seen from any other attorney that I’ve worked with. She didn’t sugarcoat or bs anything and that was very much appreciated as well. Caroline and her whole team are amazing and I definitely recommend her if you want things done right.

Ashley Stitzer goes to court well organized with all of the documents and facts at her fingertips making her points to the court meaningful and on target. Her support staff also helped to create a well prepared case. She anticipates the questions to be asked and prepares her client appropriately. Being as this was our first time being exposed to family court, we were very nervous, but Ashley put us at ease. I highly recommend Ashley for Family court cases, I will use her services again if the situation arises.

As a single professional woman, I was looking for a new lawyer to update important documents, appropriate for my stage of life. A dear friend suggested I met and speak with Steve, who was her lawyer. It meant having to get a friend to drive me 40 minutes away. It was the best investment of time & gas I could have made…and I made myself a lifetime friend.
