Contracts and Agreements 25%

As a business owner or a person contemplating a business venture you need the sound advice of a lawyer. People and companies hire attorneys to tell them what they can and cannot do under the law. J. Graves & Associates seeks to provide legal services for small businesses to startups. Business owners who try to “go it alone” typically find themselves making the problem bigger and then spending more money to clean it up.

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.
