Knowledgeable but needs polish

Julie A. Smith handled my appeal with solid legal expertise, particularly in railroad law—a practice area where she's recognized. She understood the complex regulations and constructed a strong argument. However, her communication could be more proactive. I often had to follow up to get updates, which added unnecessary stress. While I appreciate her legal knowledge, the experience felt impersonal. A bit more attention to client expectations would elevate her service.

Exceptional Guidance in Complex Appellate Case

Julie Smith’s expertise in appellate practice was invaluable during my recent legal challenge. Facing a complex case involving railroad law—a niche area where she’s widely recognized—I needed an attorney who understood both the technicalities and the human impact of the situation. Julie’s deep knowledge, honed over four years at Cosgrave Vergeer Kester LLP, was evident from our first meeting. She meticulously reviewed my case, crafting a compelling brief that addressed every nuance. Her professionalism and clear communication made a stressful process manageable, and her strategic insights ultimately led to a favorable outcome. Julie’s recognition as a Lawyer of the Year in Appellate Practice speaks volumes, but her genuine dedication to her clients is what truly sets her apart. I highly recommend her to anyone needing a skilled, compassionate advocate.
