Client Success Story
"Let's face it it's always a little intimidating meeting with an attorney, but Kurt made us feel extremely comfortable. He was very confident, very personal, and he spent time listening to our concerns. He not only gave us his professional viewpoints, but also his personal opinions on many things that we needed help with. His professional fees are extremely reasonable. We get the feeling that he is more concerned with taking care of your concerns, then putting a dollar value on everything I would highly recommend Kurt for any of your concerns with real estate law."
