This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

Excellent Strategy, Preparedness & Results!

Attorney Buck helped me right out of the gate and my result was excellent. His ability to extract client details of a case, evidence and formulate a strategy and cross examination was key to my positive case results. He is young, but his credentials and schooling are impressive. I am currently us...ing him again on another case as he has gained my trust based on the first case results.

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.
