Review of Derek Jokelson

I was a client of Mr. Jokelson. He is honest; he worked diligently for me, he has a high attention to detail. I was very pleased with the results of the case. I highly recommend him. All throughout the process, he stayed with me and with the case no matter the details. I trust him and recommend him ...for all litigation.

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.
