As a veteran of 50+ years in the profession, I think I can identify superior client service when I see it. And that’s exactly how I would describe the level of service I received from Angela and Devin on two recent projects that were conducted under extreme time pressure. No matter the last minute request, no matter the increase in scope, EMI was right there at my side delivering a superior service that pleased not only me but my client as well.
