Elder Law Expertise

While searching for an elder law attorney who could steer my family in the right direction regarding elder care for my mother quickly approaching 91 and still living independently in another state from me, I found Attorney Lutz on the National Academy of Elder Law Attorneys website. Attorney Lutz pr...omptly returned my phone call and explained Medicaid and long-term care to me in easy-to-understand terms, providing me with a way forward. He was admirably easy to talk to and attentive and caring during our discourse.

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.
