Posted by Robert Fitzgerald | September 10, 2017 | Hired Attorney | Child Support

simply the BEST......He and his team will help you and pay attention to you.

After 6 years of losing my job- losing my income- and fighting for a reduction in my child support, after several attorneys wanted negotiate ( to no avail), Gene and Kathy had the facts and law to present to the judge. He professionally presented my case before the judge and won the new, lower month...ly child support. I finally have been able to breathe. You guys are simply the best. Robert

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.
