The red-brown shingled building with the round, cross-quartered window in its gable.

Personal service is the hallmark of our firm.

The team takes the time to understand your personal need and gives you an individualized approach, rather than handing you off down a line. Here is how the office puts it.

  1. i

    “The sound and honest representation you need while providing the personalized legal services you deserve.”

  2. ii

    “Our attorneys work hand-in-hand with each other” and “work as a team to provide the client with complete and comprehensive solutions.”

  3. iii

    “The highest level of integrity and ethics while handling your legal matters confidentially.”

In practice that means a bankruptcy that touches a divorce, or an estate that needs probate, does not have to be explained again to a stranger. The attorneys talk to each other, and you talk to the one who handles your kind of matter.

With over 50 years of combined experience, Apple Street Law Office P.L.C. gives you the knowledge and assurance you need when you are seeking legal guidance. Let our experience work for you: call for a free consultation, explain what is going on, and hear plainly what the attorney thinks your options are.

The people behind the front door.

Three attorneys, and a legal assistant and part-time assistant who keep the office running. Open any bio for their schooling, their cases and how to reach them. The attorneys practice side by side in one suite, so a question that crosses two areas of law, such as a divorce with debts attached, gets answered by people who already talk to each other.
