Posted by DENISE | June 03, 2024 | Ethics & Professional Responsibility

Disgusting, no morals or ethical conduct

Beware, he will help your former spouse harass and abuse you to get papers signed and arrangements the way they want them. DUFF is a disgusting fraud, he should be disbarred and questioned about his moral and ethical conduct, such a disgrace.

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.
