Amazing Firm

Mr. Young was an amazing lawyer from the day he took my case to the day it was over he always kept me informed of what was going on. He talked to me like a person not just someone that he didn't care about. His firm is amazing and I would recommend him to anyone that needed a lawyer. He helped me so ...much. He knows exactly what needed to be done and made sure I was told everything from day one. He is very knowledgeable .

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.
