I can't say enough about Daphne and her team. She was empathetic, knowledgeable, and thorough (so much so, that opposing counsel admitted having to research things she'd included in our counter). Throughout an extremely stressful and painful process, she and her team were always willing to answer my slew of questions without hesitation, and were always there to reassure me that we would make it through the storm and get to the other side.
