“Cernitz Law represented two of my properties. Insurance ran me around and did not wanted to pay for the damages. I hired Cernitz Law to work with the insurance company and all of my cases settled. If anyone has damaged properties, I would highly recommend Cernitz Law to handle the loss. You will not be disappointed with their representation.”
