"Justin is a fantastic writer and has a great legal mind. I have every confidence that he can handle any appeal."

White collar crime lawyer | Feb 10

Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

"I served with Justin in the U.S. Attorney's Office and came to know him as an exceptionally bright and motivated attorney. This helped him overcome the stigma of having an association with Duke University. In all seriousness, a good reputation is well earned, and Justin was a highly regarded superstar in the Office. During his years as an Assistant United States Attorney, Justin tried more jury trials than many attorney do in a lifetime. If you are Justin's client, congratulations. If you are an attorney on the other side, good luck. You're going to need it."

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.
