Excellent Attorney

I needed to hire an out of state attorney regarding a child support contempt issue. Ms. Bonton treated me with the utmost respect and was very understanding. She followed through on everything she said, returned all my calls and always kept me updated on the case status. It was important for me to... trust the attorney I hired (being out of state) and I have found that with Ms. Bonton. She is very professional and has done amazing work with my case. I would highly recommend her.

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.
