Excellent Results - Thank You!

From the first meeting, Mr. Damadeo did an excellent job of spelling out to me exactly the nature of my situation. He told me what he could do for me and he actually did what he said he was going to do very quickly and efficiently. Whenever I had a question he was always very good at getting back to ...me in a short period of time with an answer. The result of his work on my case is absolutely phenomenal... I could have never predicted such a successful outcome. I recommend Mr. Damadeo with the highest degree of confidence!

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.
