Perfect Representation

Most recently I hired Warren to help me secure all the requisite legal paperwork for my startup. I got everything I needed, including a clear explanation of how all the pieces fit together. When I had questions, he patiently answered them and went above and beyond. One advantage with Warren is that h...e brings a practical, in-depth business background which I have found is pretty rare. When I raise business issues/questions, he immediately understands the implications. I also know Warren has been successful handling a # of extremely significant cases, so he is equally adept at providing counsel for both small and very large businesses.

Valued Resource

Many attorneys act simply as a vendor, keeping you on a meter and adding 6 minutes to your bill every time they answer a thirty second email. Warren treats you like a business partner, genuinely concerned with your best interests; I view him as an extension of my company. Sound, practical advice to... arrive at the optimal solution, often saving the client from allowing emotion to inform decisions.

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.
