Testimonials
In English:
My name is Isidro. I want to thank Yexenia for the attention and very specific and tailored services provided to me by Ms. Yexenia Gilmet. Her guidance, every step of the way, allowed me to gain full custody of my daughter. My testimonial is short but there are no words that can describe the quality of service provided.I.O., Conroe, Texas
My two roommates and I were facing eviction from our apartment complex after having been falsely accused of creating excessive noise on numerous occasions. We were not given the opportunity to respond to the false claims that were made against us to the apartment management so we contacted Yexenia Gilmet and explained our situation. Yexenia contacted our apartment manager and pointed out that they had not followed the protocol outlined in our lease agreement and presented numerous items of evidence that the accusations made against us were false. She secured an agreement from the apartment management to revoke the eviction notice. Because of her, we have remained in our apartment and have had no issues with either management or the neighbor that had falsely accused us of excessive noise. She handled this case in a very professional and expeditious manner. The clear and concise handling of this manner prevented it from escalating into what could have been a costly legal battle with the apartment complex.

Mis dos compañeros y yo estábamos frente la expulsión de nuestro complejo de apartamentos, después de haber sido falsamente acusado de crear un ruido excesivo en numerosas ocasiones. No nos dieron la oportunidad de responder a las falsas afirmaciones que se hicieron contra nosotros a la gestión de apartamentos por lo que contactamos a Yexenia Gilmet y explicamos nuestra situación. Yexenia Gilmet contacto la gerente de apartamentos y señaló que no había seguido el protocolo descrito en nuestro contrato de arrendamiento y presentaron numerosos artículos de evidencia de que las acusaciones hechas en contra de nosotros eran falsas. Se obtuvo un acuerdo de la gestión del apartamento a revocar la orden de desalojo. Debido a la asesoría jurídica Yexenia Gilmet, nos hemos mantenido en nuestro apartamento y no hemos tenido problemas ya sea con la gestión o el vecino que nos había falsamente acusado. Yexenia Gilmet manejo este caso de manera muy profesional y rápida. El manejo claro y conciso de esta manera le impidió que se conviertan en lo que podría haber sido una costosa batalla legal con el complejo de apartamentos.
