Excellent attorney to work with

j I retained Mr.Locke to help me vacate a wrongful judgment imposed against my husband and I in New York (we live in Illinois). Mr Locke was professional and acted quickly in order to vacate the judgment. He was always available, always returned my phone calls and e-mails and kept me informed as t...o the status of my case. As a result of Mr.Locke's diligent efforts, the wrongful judgment was removed and my husband and I were able to regain access to our funds. I would highly recommend Mr.Locke as an attorney for his professionalism and positive results.

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.
