Highly recommended attorney, dedicated, tenacious, effective.

I highly recommend Ms. Zuccardy as an attorney. She handled two cases of mine, both very different, and in both instances she was successful in representing me and my interests. She was always prompt and professional. I felt she gave my cases a great deal of time and effort even though they were not ..."big cases". I always felt well cared for and informed of what was happening.

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.
