Google Review By Rene Harding: ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ My experience with Liz Marcus at Frascona, Joiner, Goodman and Greenstien was so outstanding I want to tell you about her. I was in a situation where I needed help and felt awful about it. Liz was compassionate, kind and listened extremely well to what I needed. Liz made me feel better about what had happened. All the while still performing her job to search out a solution and make sure it was not all my fault. Her communication skills through the whole process are impressive. She always keep me in the loop. I can’t say enough about how much I appreciated her help and professionalism. I highly recommend her if you need help.
