I have been pleased with their services. Particularly in the lawyer's case, she took on a convoluted matter that 3 other (male) lawyers had given up on, and settled it to my satisfaction. Of course I prefer *her* to the men. If I felt that they were not as good as any male in the same profession, I wouldn't still be their client. Solidarity and sisterhood don't wash when incompetence enters the picture. But solidarity, sisterhood, and competence is, I think, an unbeatable combination.
