      I went to Anna with some legal advise for a problem I was having with another company. The first thing I noticed that made me impressed, was her immediate sympathy for my problem. She wasn’t just a lawyer, but also a friend. She listened to all of my issues and then gave advise from both sides. She was honest in her opinion and gave me the advise I needed.
