Newkirk and Zwagerman were recommended to me by a close friend and colleague. I had reached out to several other places looking for representation, but their team was the only group that made me feel heard and valued. They walked me through the best course of action for my scenario, and also showed great professionalism. I can't thank them enough for their support and help.
