Review for J. Finn Gavagan

I was referred to Attorney Finn Gavagan by a close friend who said, “You need someone who knows the law and will truly have your back.” She was right. After I was seriously injured in a trip and fall at a supermarket in Cape Cod, Attorney Gavagan helped me through the entire legal process with com...passion, expertise, and incredible attention to detail. I didn’t know much about personal injury law or how to handle a supermarket accident claim, but Finn explained everything clearly and fought for the compensation I deserved. Because of his work, I was able to take care of my family and feel financially secure again. If you’ve been injured in a trip and fall or any kind of accident in Massachusetts, I highly recommend calling Attorney Finn Gavagan at Gavagan Law, LLC. He’s a trustworthy, knowledgeable, and dedicated personal injury lawyer serving Cape Cod, Boston, and all of Massachusetts.

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.
