"We have known Len Sloane since 2014, when we retained the Eckell Sparks Law Firm and Leonard A. Sloane, Esq. to represent us in a personal injury case. My wife was seriously injured, when her car was hit in a head-on collision caused by an intoxicated driver.
Having done prior due diligence in selecting attorney, I met with Len and his paralegal, Betsy, in his Media office. Right from the get-go, I knew that I wanted him to represent us. Len was compassionate, and all business. He offered to meet with my wife, Alma, and I. We signed the agreement in her hospital room the very next day.
Len is an excellent attorney, energetic, and with great knowledge of the law. Len and Betsy gave us support when needed. He became a trusted friend.
My wife suffered terrible injuries requiring many months of hospitalization, not an easy time for a couple of 80 years old, but young of heart, people with a zest for life.
Len understood us perfectly and concluded the case satisfactorily. We highly recommend Len Sloane and the Eckell Sparks Law Firm."
