Really nice, honest and trustworthy

This was my first court case encounter and I had Susan who was awesome. I had a misdemeanor case and she represented like the pro she is. It took a little longer to resolve than we expected but still happy with the outcome. Thanks Sue

Understanding and Efficient

I hired attorney Red to handle a complex traffic matter on short notice. Despite this, she demonstrated a keen understanding of the issue, as well as considerable knowledge and seasoned legal skills, and got the job done right the first time without any difficulty. I would recommend attorney Red to a...nyone for hire because she is capable to handle just about any type of legal issue correctly the first time in an efficient, professional, and understanding manner.

Genuine and Professional

When I found myself in trouble for a terrible decision I made, I knew I had to contact an attorney. I had no idea what to expect when meeting Susan or what to expect from the whole legal process. Despite my anxiety about meeting my first lawyer, Susan proved to be absolutely fantastic. I did not ...once feel judged for my case, instead she was incredibly down to earth and genuine and made me feel safe. Susan was able to give professional advice that calmed my nerves and allowed me to see that it was more than possible to manage my situation. On top of that, she was incredibly understanding of my lack of knowledge with the court system, and helped to inform me of each step of the process. Because of her guidance and expertise in law, I was able to receive a total dismissal of my charges. She gave me the opportunity to walk away from my ordeal and maintain my clean record and for this I cannot thank her enough. I know for a fact I would have not been able to receive the same outcome if I had not gone to Susan at Red Law Firm.

Disappointed by her services

I had her on a case she failed to keep me updated she is knowledgeable I would not recommend her for a family case She would continue my case & not mark the case ready before the actual court date. I tried to contact her multiple times and cannot reach her. I ended up hiring a new lawyer to represent... me.

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.
