This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

Wonderful Attorney

Hired dOliveira and Associates after a car accident. My attorney Heather Spellman and paralegal Antonia always returned my calls and helped me win my case. There were some a couple situations that arose which could have derailed my case. But, Heather was there to save my case. Very happy with set...tlement. Thanks again.

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.
