The firm’s ethos centers around building long-term partnerships with clients, rooted in trust, clarity, and responsiveness.’

  • ‘Remziye Ozcan and Danni Belbin provided exceptional support during what was an incredibly challenging situation with a former employee. What stood out to me was how personal the experience felt—both Remziye and Danni were not only professional but also genuinely supportive throughout. They helped me stay focused, stick to the facts, and avoid being drawn into the distractions and tactics employed by the other side.

  • Their work ethic, dedication, and calm guidance were instrumental in resolving the matter amicably—an outcome that could easily have been very different without their involvement. I’m truly grateful for their support and couldn’t have asked for better people to have in our corner.’
