“I am currently in the middle of a highly complex, high-stakes business divorce involving severe fraud and breaches of fiduciary duty. The team at Calkins Law Firm has been doing an outstanding job guiding me through this incredibly stressful process.John Buchenic, in particular, has been phenomenal. He not only drafted a brilliant, airtight complaint, but he also successfully executed a highly strategic move to get the defense counsel completely disqualified. The entire team at the firm is truly outstanding, professional, and aggressive when it matters most. I wish I could give them 10 stars—highly recommended for anyone facing a complex corporate breakup!”
Thank you for your kind review!
