They say a picture is worth a thousand words.
Well, how about a 2-3 minute video? Certainly much more than that.
However, in this category, I share with you actual word-for-word transcripts of videos I have created to help educate and teach my ideal clients and consumers who are searching for information to make them better informed consumers of legal services here in New York.
I invite you to read, watch and learn as much as possible about how your type of case works before you ever pick up the phone to speak to an attorney.
Enjoy your reading!
Best regards,
