I recently had the pleasure of working with Brace Law on a new mortgage. I want to say that it was the most professional experience I have had for a closing transaction EVER! The lawyer was thorough, and took the time to go through every single part of the agreement, answering all of my questions. She was polite, kind and professional. A true 10 of 10 experience. I will absolutely use them again - and look forward to it!
