Highly Recommend

Melissa represented me in a divorce and custody dispute. Her relentless work in the courtroom awarded me full custody and a sizeable alimony to help support my two sons. Every phone call to her office was promptly returned and she was always available to answer questions. Melissa is an excellent at...torney and was an emotional rock during the worst time of my life. I will be forever thankful and would recommend her to anyone.

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.
