David Bal President, Signs Now Washington

Through our relationship with Hensel Phelps I was introduced to The Barbour Group. The Barbour Group took the time to explain the ins and outs of bonding. But, it didn’t stop there. They also explained bonding intricacies and the importance to align your financial model to support the bonding brokers and banks – this counsel is critical to navigating the bonding process and increasing your chances of success. And, they gave me options. We tried different approaches until we arrived at a place that we felt comfortable. The Barbour Group guided me through the entire process and really came up to bat for me! A+ experience.
