Excellent lawyer just a bit pricey

Excellent lawyer. Becomes personally involved in your situation. Discusses all the options in plain language. He has saved my behind more than a few times. Very knowledgable. Only drawback is that it is quite expensive and after 7 years of representation of me in various matters, he began at the l...ast moment to lose motivation / interest. But that can also be my own doing, since I had for 7 years gotten various criminal cases.

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.
