A little advice...do not utilize this lawyer.

Randy Margulis “Represented” my divorce case. I quote the word represented because I was rarely ever able to reach him, he would only half listen to my situation, very absent minded (almost as though he takes on too much work at once). He would only appear in court for the serious appearances. Anythi...ng less, he sends another lawyer and be very careful with invoicing. Read his contract in full and understand that regardless of the job performed- you will be billed with no mercy. Long story short- his firm handled a case for me and completely left out adjusting child support and his competence was greatly questioned in the courtroom. He still feels as though I owe a few thousand for a job NOT well done and if you don’t pay, he threatens to sue! I do not recommend.

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.
