EXCELLENT LAWYER-- SMART AND CARING

Attorney Moch gave my case the diligent energy and unwavering devotion to fight for what was right for me. She was trustworthy and ethical in a setting where these qualities can be hard to find. Susan provided the organization and control I needed in a pretty chaotic situation. She is tough, experien...ced, and clearly knows how to get the best for her clients. After experiencing the work of other lawyers, I can honestly say I am deeply thankful that Susan Moch was on my side. I don’t know where I would be now without her defense, wisdom and guidance.

This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

Be very wary

I recently hired Susan to handle a divorce that was uncontested and had a post-nupt guiding the entire divorce proceeding. Susan often called with confused questions forgetting the details of my case. Her continual delays in creating the divorce paperwork were inexcusable. Her overall gruff manner ...and lack of communication are infuriating. She neglected to file the post-nup in accordance with the law and left me at great financial risk. If she was so remiss in my simple case, you should be very wary of using her for yours. When confronted with this egregious error she agreed to return my retainer - and then reneged on that agreement by claiming her error was easily fixable. Be very careful. She is not a woman of her word and her legal skills are clearly are highly suspect.

She is extremely smart, analytical, dedicated to her clients, hard working, an excellent trial attorney, willing to go the extra mile for her clients and stand up for their rights. She cannot be intimidated and yet is still compassionate while advising her clients. Years ago I was on the opposite side from her in a few cases. She was always a consummate professional. John M.

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.
