Competence and Integrity

Fred handled my divorce in 2019 and I was grateful that he represented me. We built an excellent rapport and worked closely together throughout the process. He is very experienced, took the time to educate me on all matters and listened to my concerns. He was focused, fair and reasonable throughou...t the process. When needed, he was firm and persistent with issues that were important to me. He has integrity, is realistic and balanced in his advice and he respected my opinions/decisions. Fred and his team are smart, reliable, honest and very competent.

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.
