Mr Andrew Postal came highly recommended from one of his associates and now I see why. I have never needed to use an attorney and didn't know meetingwhat to expect-so I entered the office a little on the edge. However, after our first meeting, Mr. Postal did a great job putting my mind at ease. His level of professionalism goes beyond the four walls of his office. He always showed to be genuinely concerned about me and not just my case. He kept me well informed of every detail of my case. He never made decisions for me, but allowed me to have a voice. That was truly appreciated. The services of this firm are remarkable!!!!

What a great law firm. I had a very complex case and Drew never broke stride. You would have thought I had a high rise firm handling my case. Calls always returned, and I am a demanding persona they met every demand. No TV lawyer has a thing on Bob and Drew. What a great team. They have put Georgetown on the legal map. No matter what your case call them.
