Posted by Lori | September 11, 2020 | Class Action

He was the only lawyer that knew my question wasn't from a scam!

I received 5 answers to a question about a class action suit against Google, and a confusing emailed Subpeaona. 3 lawyers said it is was a scam; one was not at all helpful, but Mr. Savett knew exactly what I was talking about, verified that he had worked with the legal firm before, and gave me the an...swers I needed to relax and not feel so stressed about this legal matter. He was timely, concise and caring.

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.
