Incredible Attorney!

Melissa has been incredible to work with. She put my mind at ease from the start during a very complicated and high stakes divorce. She took on my case with very few questions and offered her help right away! Her demeanor is very calming and centered and her advice is spot on. She came on board m...y legal counsel team to help bring my child to safety and did just that within a few weeks of getting hired! Melissa provided me with additional facts and reports which secured my child’s well being very quickly. My child is now residing with me in a safe domestic violence free home due to her dedication, optimism, and diligence. Melissa takes her work very seriously and really advocates for her clients well! Thank you, I’m forever grateful and highly recommend her to lead you and your family to the best possible outcome.

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.
