Great lawyer

I have used Mr. Tomlins to close on a property and personal injury. He is very professional and a great lawyer. I have recommended him to close friends. We had an issue with the sale of a property and his experience and advice was perfect.

Ronald Tomlins very knowledgeable

I was referred to Ronald from my mother in-law. His fees were exactly what I was quoted at the beginning of my mortgage process. Very knowledgeable of what was needed and what had to be done for my purchase. I am recommending him to others.

Highly recommended Real Estate Attorney

As first time homeowners it was essential to have someone to explain the complicated process of buying a home. Ronald was not only available with any questions that we had before closing but also at our closing. He explained the legal rhetoric in detail, and simplified it for us so we understood all ...the information at hand. Ronald was also so patient with us when we had questions regarding documents or legal terms that were brought up. We felt more apart of the discussion than being the discussion. Ronald was not only professional but personable and that made our experience during closing easy and stress-free. Furthermore, Ron was available via email or phone at all hours of the day. We highly recommend Ronald to all new homeowners. Thank you so much for making our first time home buying experience a breeze.

Highly Recommended Attorney

Ron Tomlins was our attorney when we sold our townhouse and also when we purchased our new home. The purchase was a short sale, and he was very patient and helpful with the long process. We always felt Ron was looking out for our interests. He answered our emails and calls promptly. Ron is easy to... talk to and took his time explaining the legal process every step of the way. If the need arises, we will definitely use his services again.

Real estate (house purchase)

Ron was very prompt in drafting and processing all of our home purchasing documents. He provided sound advice when issues with our inspection arose and he accommodate our tight schedule, which allowed us to close just in time for Christmas. I highly recommend Ron.

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.
