I want you as my divorce lawyer for a bunch of reasons. Here are some of them:

1. I want you as my divorce lawyer because my friend told me you’re the best.

2. …because I went to your website, and it answered my questions.

3. …because your staff treated me respectfully when I called.

4. …because you returned my first call to your office right away.

5. …because you scheduled my consult for the next day.

6. …because your receptionist expected me when I arrived at your office.
