I would first like to start off with thanking Michael Broad for his diligence and fantastic work…read morethat he performed for me in the loss of my mom in 2019. Mr. Broad accepted my case to do probate for my mom's estate and worked with me and taught me what it is to be in a probate case and helped me understand much that I didn't know about probate. This man is a great piece to the community and his integrity speaks for itself. I just want to say in my closing, thanks so much for standing by side and helping me with my mom's estate and finally bringing it to a close after two years plus of probate. Your the best and you definitely get five stars from me. Thanks so much. Regards. Marvin Thompson
