I would and do highly recommend this attorney

From start to finish, she was excellent. She had attention to detail, answering questions, advice, keeping in touch every step of the way. Not only was I satisfied in choosing this office but I was fortunate enough to have a very professional and knowledgeable attorney to handle my case. I would ...and do highly recommend her.

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.
