Client Testimonials

I had the privilege of working with Adam Maxwell and the team at SFBGG during a challenging legal battle with former business partners. From the outset, Adam and his team were proactive, empathetic, and fully committed to first fully understand my situation, and then fight for my interests. Their focus on service was evident in every interaction—always keeping me informed, addressing my concerns, and strategizing effectively to protect my company and me.

 

Sandra Mertens provided excellent work and guidance throughout this process. We truly felt you were 100% in our corner, and we greatly appreciated your candor and willingness to give clear advice. That level of commitment isn’t always easy to find. We’re very grateful for everything you did to help us get this across the finish line.

 

Christian Manalli has been our estate attorney for over twenty-five years. As our family circumstances have changed through the years and our financial needs have changed, Christian has been there every step of the way. He has always taken the time to listen and ask questions to understand our ideas for our family’s future and is always there to answer questions. My wife and I have trusted him with our family’s financial future. And now our children are entrusting Christian for their generational estate planning.

 

Well done, Adam Glazer and Andrew Johnson! Like I said before, we know we had the best representation we could possibly have had.

 

My previous attorney’s decision to seek other employment instead of focus on my case was a blessing in disguise, as it led to my meeting SFBBG and Sandra Mertens and very quickly gaining confidence that they have my back. I take great comfort in knowing that I am being very well represented.
