I can say, without hesitation, that Lynette was the most professional and efficient lawyer that I have ever worked with in regards to personal legal matters. Her communication was excellent, she delivered a complicated agenda with no issues and in a very timely manner, she provided support to both myself and my parents well beyond the call of duty, and ultimately helped my parents to set up everything that they required at a very reasonable cost... Lynette provided an empathetic, caring and understanding service. She was able to work with myself in a professional, efficient and genuinely friendly manner... I cannot speak highly enough of Lynette. She is a rare breed of lawyer that combines professional excellence with a wonderfully understanding and supportive style.
