a lost level of excellence

If it was not for Mr. Tarver I would have definately been railroaded! Im a former police officer who had bad accusations against me, Mr. Tarver took time to analyze the playing field of my preceedings and told me what was going to happen before it happened(good and bad). Mr. Tarver handled my case wi...th honor, after my first crooked lawyer irreparably damaged my case.If I had a complaint, it would be that Mr. Tarver takes his time(snails pace) and waits out some situations to his benefit. Sometimes as a defendant that can be nerve racking, but IT WORKS!! So im not gonna complain. I will say this, after dealing with a couple of lawyers in my lifetime for different reasons, he's the only one I can say, I TRUST. I hooe this helps someone.

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.
