TRISTA D. CAREY - SCHNELL HARDY JONES LLP REVIEWS
Trista Carey is by far the best lawyer! If you want someone who is organized and skilled, extremely knowledgeable. Fast and professional, she is the best ! I’ve been her client for 12 years now. She has helped me with so much over the years and she is always so kind , happy to help. You can’t go wrong with this gal ! She gets it done.
The only law firm that was able to accommodate me when I was in a rush, I had a same day appointment. They answer calls right away. Their service, the front desk receptionist and Colton were great! Thank you so much.
Very happy with the services I received - highly recommend this Law Firm!
