Exceptionally honest in free consultation

I spoke to two attorneys today. Mr. Matison was clearly the winner among the two consultations despite not giving me a great deal of hope. His fees are more reasonable, and he gives you a very clear, honest look at what you are facing in courts and court fees. He even told me that right this very mom...ent is not the time to retain an attorney until some stuff is settled with law enforcement... again, very honest. And even without retaining him yet he told me I can email him further questions as they come to my mind. P.S. I suggest you call attorneys or email them directly. Don't message them on AVVO. Seems few if any actually check their AVVO inboxes.

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.
