Great Results

Jay took on my case which had some mitigating circumstances that were difficult to navigate through. He did a great job processing my case, filing motions and keeping me informed throughout the case. He always gave good sound advice and brought my case through to a successful conclusion. I would h...ighly recommend Jay for any Legal needs you have.

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.
