Brilliant lawyer!!

Mr. Black is not only an amazing lawyer but is truly a caring person. I came to him after seeing another bankruptcy lawyer. What a difference! He was honest, clear, professional, compassionate and thorough. The other lawyer had been vague and did not communicate well with me about the next steps. But... Mr. Black took the time to answer all my questions. He saved me from a terrible situation financially and understood that good people sometimes get in a bad place and deserve a fresh start. He gave me that and I will be forever jackgrateful to him and his staff. There is no one better!

Bankruptcy

Mr Black handled my chapter 7 case. I was made aware of all of my options. Everything was explained to me before the proceedings I was always made aware of all things beneficial to my case. I have used him before and because of my experience with him I knew it would be good for me to use him ag...ain. Very professional and polite.

Bankruptcy case

Mr Black and his staff are professional, courteous and prompt. My case went on for almost 4 years and it was the most difficult and stressful time of my life. Mr. Black informed me of all my options and pointed me in the right direction when my judgement was less than ideal due to financial, physic...al and emotional hardship. Thank you Mr Black, Marissa and all the office staff at Black, Stranick and Cella....you are all top notch professionals!

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.
