CLIENT TESTIMONIALS
MacElree Harvey has recently helped us with re-writing our Wills. Our old Wills were a bit of a “spaghetti mess” and hard to follow. By just answering three or four questions posed by MacElree Harvey we were able to streamline our last wishes…..VERY HELPFUL!
Lance’s expertise in the law is invaluable. His admirable penchant in navigating my difficult, long divorce, resulting in a positive outcome, is vastly appreciated. For many years, his professional manner and attentiveness kept me confident and peaceful. I am grateful to Lance and his top-tier firm for their capability and for giving me a favorable conclusion to that chapter in my life.
If you need to navigate a zoning case in Chester County, Matt McKeon is who you want in your corner. He provided expert guidance and was so meticulously over-prepared that the hearing itself was a cake walk. His deep knowledge of variances and permitting is undeniable. He is incredibly well-connected and knows exactly how to get things done locally. For anyone dealing with land use issues, he is the definitive choice.
Lance was most impressive in the courtroom, but all other aspects of my divorce were handled quickly and professionally. Lance also made time to guide me through the process with clear answers and some humor.
Lance and his team did an absolutely wonderful job with my custody case. They are all fast and very efficient, making a difficult process run smoothly. I was always kept updated about my situation or with any changes. I would never go to anyone else.
