I had never retained an attorney before when I brought a very sensitive matter to Paula Aylward. A lot was a stake, professionally and personally, and because of that, I am genuinely grateful I found Paula. A lot is said about doctor's "bedside manners," but not enough about an attorney's grace and sensitivity, or "courtside manners," but Paula's were top notch and greatly appreciated. Her professionalism, knowledge of the law, and communication style provided the equally important confidence I needed that the best possible outcome would be ours. I never considered that I would ever rate my attorney based on anything beyond his or her knowledge of the law and skill in arguing on my behalf, both of which earned my confidence in full, but it was her compassion that left me with a debt of gratitude. You would do well to retain Paula Aylward.
