Review 5/5
Linda T.
When our condo was damaged in a hurricane, our insurance company refused to work with us or communicate with us about the claim. Instead, they sent an extremely low settlement check, that didn’t cover even a fraction of our damage. After many frustrating attempts (over several months) to work it out ourselves, we decided to hire Jonathon Douglas. He was very easy to work with and listened to us. We were very happy with both his representation of us and our settlement.
