Daniel Caro

Litigation lawyer | Jun 29

Relationship: Opposing Counsel on matter

"I endorse this lawyer. I had a multi-year litigated matter with Mr. Navagh that entailed elements of business, probate and contract law. The matter was extremely complex and our clients were often emotional and Mr. Navagh remained professional and ethical throughout the process. If not for his efforts, the matter may never have gotten resolved. I am aware of his reputation within the local community and have only heard positive references to him from others. I have no hesitation or reservation in recommending Jim as an attorney."

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.
