Armada Law is where it’s at. If you’re looking to get 5/6 figures Armada Law is where you should be. I literally sat back and let Armada Law do what they do and didn’t have to worry about anything. They communicate with you through the entire process, answer any and all questions you may have. They are located in Greenville,SC, but they make you feel like they are next door to you, no matter where you are located. They are fair, they are courteous, and they truly fight for you to get everything that you deserve. They fought to get me more money than I knew I was even entitled to. I am very pleased with Armada Law. I found them through an advertisement, and I’m so glad that I did. I would recommend Armada Law to everyone who needs a lawyer after an accident. They do all the work while you heal. I am thoroughly pleased. I can’t say enough about how pleased I am. Thank you Mark, Thank you Katherine, Thank you to the entire team at Armada Law for everything.
