Reception
“Once I met with Britton Swank, a huge burden was lifted. She and her assistant not only walked me through the process, they were always available. I knew I was never alone and that gave me great comfort. Ms. Swank even met me at the bank on a Saturday morning when the branch manager was refusing me access to the safety deposit box even though I had all the court orders giving me full access.”
Dorothy M.
