Worst Lawyer Ever!

Please save your money! Scammer who preys on vulnerable, widowed women.! Took a retainer of 3,500$ and did absolutely nothing! Never returns phone calls.

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.
