“Hope brings compassion and professionalism through the lens of a practicing artist and a whipsmart lawyer. This superpower combination allows for a non-intimidating, fun process. As a longtime practicing arts professional, I found her qualities invaluable and almost magical. Before I knew it we had completed a legal process that would have taken me much more time.”
