I highly recommend AK Law Firm!! Lisa garza is working on my cases and she has been amazing. She call every week to make sure I’m OK and to see if I have any questions or need anything. I’ve dealt with another law firm in the past and there was a little to no communication throughout my case and I hear other people having the same issue, not hearing back from their lawyer, that is not a problem at this law firm the communication is great. You never have to wonder what’s going on because they stay on top of things and give you a call every week, even if there is no changes.
