REVIEWS:
"Tenaciousness is one of Lanee’s most endearing attributes. I know this because of the way she handled a long-standing, convoluted, and irritating legal problem for me regarding some property in Lenoir County. Lanee’s knowledge of title, attention to detail, curiosity, and determination to reconstruct the events to their origin resulted in a most rewarding outcome for me. Thank you, Lanee.”
