The best experience you'll ever have.

Those who have had the privilege of working with her know she likes being called Tomi so at the offset she treated us like and extension of her. We were family and she wanted the best for us and immediately she gained a level of trustworthiness by always keeping us in the know. If you have to go to c...ourt she is the one you would rather in your corner. She's a professional, patience and she's no push over by any strength of the imagination. I would recommend her and use her again because she worth it.

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.
