“I really seek to establish an open line of communication and a level of trust with each of my clients,” Preston Bennett said. “Each situation is different, so it is important for me to really understand what each client is going through.
This will enable me to customize a plan for each of my clients moving forward which will provide them the opportunity to have the most successful outcome.”
