Posted by Judith | April 21, 2024 | Hired Attorney | Divorce & Separation

Excellent Legal Counsel

I had the privilege of working with Atty Wilkinson during a challenging and acrimonious divorce. I cannot speak highly enough of my experience with Atty Wilkinson. Throughout what was undoubtedly a difficult and emotionally charged process, he consistently demonstrated exceptional professionalism and... dedication. Atty Wilkinson's accessibility was unparalleled, as well as his amazing Paralegal, Anna, being only just a phone call or email away. Despite the tense situation, Atty Wilkinson always remained remarkably calm and reassuring, guiding me through each step with patience and ease, approaching each issue with a clear and strategic mindset. His efficiency ensured the process progressed smoothly, providing a much-needed peace of mind during a difficult time, and greatly contributed to a smoother resolution. I highly recommend Atty Wilkinson, Wilkinson and Finkbeiner, to anyone navigating a complex divorce

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.
