Commercial Litigation

I was fortunate enough to have found Stacey Nakasian of Duffy & Sweeney last year and she took over my case. Prior to working with Stacey, I was certainly losing an uphill battle and was also completely deflated with the legal system and processes. She managed to fight tooth and nail through mediation to deliver an outcome that I was not only comfortable with but also relieved to reach. Both Stacey and her team at Duffy & Sweeney were understanding, efficient, communicative and provided me with confidence that the fate of my lawsuit was in the best of hands. I couldn't be more grateful of the work that Stacey did, the confidence that she conveyed and the effectiveness of her approach. I would highly recommend her to anyone.
