As a husband and the father of two amazing children, Mackenzie and Reed, Andrew understands that nothing is as important as his responsibility to honor and protect the welfare of his family. Likewise, when Andrew takes on the role as the lawyer for a particular client, he honors the client in every interaction and works tirelessly to ensure the client receives the maximum amount of money available so that they are able to provide for their future needs and the needs of their family.
