Competent and knowledgeable, but communication could improve

Stephanie Reckord represented me in a complex employment dispute. Her 19 years of experience and recognition in commercial litigation were evident in her strategic approach to the case. She is clearly a sharp and capable attorney, as her background from Seton Hall and her fellowship with the Litigation Counsel of America would suggest. However, the process felt somewhat impersonal at times. Responses to emails were occasionally slower than I would have liked, and I sometimes had to follow up for updates. While the legal outcome was satisfactory, the overall client experience was just adequate. She is undoubtedly skilled, but the attentiveness didn't quite match the expertise.
