Review

Knew all of the Legal requirements, rules, regulations, administrative procedures. He was know by the judges and related court and law enforcement personnel. He took a personnel interest in my son and was very available to answer our questions or just to calm him down. Was very reassuring and confi...dent and everything went pretty much as he said it would

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.
