My experience with Corradino and Papa was good. What I like about Nick Schroter is he gives you the honest straight forward information about your case. Whether you want to hear it or not, he doesn't sugar coat anything. He is very thorough and does not leave any stone unturned. What he told me in the beginning regarding my case was exactly what turned out in the end.
