Andrea Wilson
AJ Skillman Law was the best I have ever worked with. From our first meeting, she explained everything to me in terms I could easily understand and was always responsive when I had questions outside of our meetings. She walked me through my process step by step and made a very difficult situation manageable. Her fees were also within my price range. Thanks for a great experience!”
