Thorough, efficient, and effective

Working with Anna Ivey on my applications to law school was absolutely the right choice to make. She helped to simplify what is a very complicated process. Her methods, such as the Brainstorm Questionnaire, are thorough, efficient, and effective. She was intent on understanding my reasons for going to law school, and these initial conversations helped me thoroughly reflect on my decision and make certain that it was the right one. Her advice was an indispensable asset for choosing which schools to apply to, for interviewing, for resume writing, and for completing the applications themselves. In crafting my essays, her extensive experience suggested directions that I would have otherwise thought counterintuitive, yet, as my acceptance to my first choice school indicates, her advice was spot-on. Anna is very professional, yet at the same time incredibly approachable. She is easy to talk to and listens as well as she advises. She is also very time-efficient, typically getting back to me on the same day, and at the latest, the next. I have absolutely no regrets in choosing to work with Anna, and I will without hesitation seek her counsel again should the need arise in the future.
