“Susan Eisen did an outstanding job with appraising jewelry for estate purposes. She was patient, personable, explained all procedures, answered all questions in detail, and came up with solutions to potential roadblocks in valuations. She is the most knowledgeable person in this field in the southwest. I’m so very pleased I hired Susan Eisen for the job. Money well spent.”
