Referring Attorney Testimonial

“Erika O’Donnell was invaluable in helping us through a difficult time. After my husband was diagnosed and recovering from surgery I was overwhelmed. My sons and I were dealing with doctors, medical bills and home care. To add to that, our medical insurance coverage was in question. Erika, with compassion and understanding, walked us through our maze of questions and concerns, and made it easy! She was very professional and answered all my questions, no matter how trivial, calling me back promptly (even on her way home from the office and on the weekends).
