I was extremely fortunate to have MarySue represent me on a complex case during one of the most challenging times of my life battling a large life insurance company. She demonstrated deep knowledge of the law involving ERISA and life insurance that enabled us to win my case. MarySue is extremely attentive to detail, organized, and personable. If I could give this firm more than 5 stars, I would. Highly recommend.
