Lisa kent

A few months back I found myself in need of legal representation. A friend of mine told me about how Lisa had helped them in a similar case. Though I didn't have much money to spare, Lisa told me she could help me anyways and we could figure out a payment plan at a later time. She was very professio...nal and persistent, and also kept me doing the necessary things I had to do on my part. Lisa and her legal assistants were very nice to work with. Very grateful for the help Lisa!

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.
