Attorney Insights

“Hughesville sits on the county line, and that creates a question I hear all the time: which court handles my case? Where you were stopped decides it, not where you live. Getting that right early keeps your case from stalling, and it is one of the first things we sort out.”

Jonathan L. Haskell, Esq., The Law Offices of Haskell & Dyer
