Construction Law
SpawGlass has a long standing professional relationship with Cokinos Young and many of their attorneys. They are always responsive, professional, and genuinely care about the outcome. CY does a great job of coaching the leadership on how to proactively manage a situation to avoid escalation of the issue. In addition, CY, provides training classes for our upcoming leadership in the company at no cost. I would not go into a legal situation without Cokinos Young.
