This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

Excellent service

I got myself into a serious situation for the first time in my life with the law and was really nervous but with the legal advise and help from mr Farrell everything turned out ok. Wasn't just a lawyer but also prayed with me and that was going beyond what he had to do.

Timely and patient consultation

Paul Ferrell Jr. was able to continue following through with follow-up appointments and saw my case through to its conclusion. He helped me with timely and succinct advice before our court dates, and advised on getting expert reports. He also had a prior reputation as a serious lawyer, and a good rap...port, with the judge, which helped.

Preparation of our wills

Paul was hired to give us advice in writing our wills. We asked him to compose the document, which he did it effectively and properly, and did it within a good space of time.

Very helpful

Mr Ferrell was very helpful in dealing with Burlington city court. His prices are very resonable compared to other attorneys.

Great experience

I contacted Mr Paul Ferrell Jr to assist me with my immigration petition when I became eligible to become a US citizen. He proved to be a competent and dedicated lawyer and guided me through the process, which went very smoothly and resulted in me swearing in as a US citizen earlier this year. I ...would highly recommend Mr Ferrell Jr to anyone needing legal representation regarding the immigration process.

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.
