Too Expensive

She was one of the ten or so attorneys I consulted with before I made my selection for representation during my divorce proceedings. While she seemed smart and sharp, she didn't come across as an outlier worth the large retainer (of $7,500) or her hourly rate of $400. One of the first questions was... "how much do you make" and that created the impression that she based her price list off of that. She's recently become a partner, so it's no surprise that bringing money to her firm is a top priority... in my humble opinion.

Excellent Attorney

Erin is direct, honest, and gave me valuable insight throughout each process of my divorce. Erin and the firm she is affiliated with are professional, compassionate, and all of them are outstanding to work with and have represent you.

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.
