I see our responsibility as attorneys to first protect the rights of our clients. We must try to maximize the client's benefits and expedite the legal and administrative processes, which can become quite cumbersome and time-consuming. I try to handle my cases with compassion because clients in these situations are at a difficult point in their lives. This can be very frustrating for them.

Mr. Lallo, like his partner Michael Feldman, stresses the importance of treating clients with respect and decency. I try to personalize our services and bridge the gap between the individual and the administrative system. Our job is to humanize this whole process.
