Awesome person

Our experience with Ms. Gay has been wonderful. Since our first meeting with her she took her time to talk to us about the situation, the procedure and what to expect . I love that she takes the time to explain everything and answer every question , she replies to ALL of our emails and phone calls. I... feel we couldn't be in better hands.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
