David Paul and Olivia Kronenberg not only represented our family, they did also so with a very personal approach. They were extremely thorough and methodical in their investigation and how they presented our case. It was not a quick process, but they made it easy and painless. They kept us advised on every update. Our settlement was just, and we were rewarded with closure on my wife’s death.
