Feedback
I would like to send my thanks to Amity and her team for assisting me in this matter.
Happy Client
I just wanted to say thank you very much for today. It was an amazing experience. I found it highly illuminating. I got everything I wanted and I see a clear path forward. Most important of all I have more time with my daughters than I dared to hope for. Kiara was amazing too, she was well prepared and knowledgeable… and she helped put me at ease. Her advice was invaluable. I can’t tell you how much I appreciate everything you’ve done for me. Your work on this has been nothing short of miraculous.
