This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

Brilliant Lawyer

Jill represented me in a complex employment discrimination and retaliation case against a former employer. She has a heart of gold and always put my needs first, even if that meant connecting about my case outside of regular business hours. She was also incredibly thorough and detail-oriented, identi...fying additional claims based on the facts that added tremendous value to my case. Ultimately her decades of experience served me well, and I received a settlement that was nearly double the amount I originally thought was possible. Jill is truly one of a kind - a skilled lawyer that is brilliant, patient, considerate, and persistent in successfully advocating for her clients. I would retain her again in a heartbeat should I ever experience employment discrimination in the future.

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.
