This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

Disappointed by Missed Deadlines and Poor Case Management

I regret having to write this, but my experience with Reshad D. Favors was deeply disappointing. I hired him to represent me in a matter that required precision, diligence, and timely action. Unfortunately, several critical deadlines were missed—including the deadline to conduct formal depositions of... key witnesses—which severely undermined the strength of my case. Due to these oversights, I was ultimately forced to settle under unfavorable terms. I expected a higher level of professionalism and strategic follow-through, especially given the stakes involved. I cannot recommend Attorney Reshad D. Favors for cases that require rigorous litigation or time-sensitive execution.

EXCEPTIONAL OUTCOMES

I was referred to Mr. Favors by a trusted friend that guaranteed I would be completely satisfied with his services. I was not disappointed, Mr. Favors and his team were notably professional and worked diligently to resolve my legal issues, thoroughly communicating steps, processes and expectations. H...uge shout out to JAKE for always responding to my emails and phone calls timely and with all of my inquiries answered! I would highly recommend Reshad Favors for EXCEPTIONAL outcomes!

Stellar Employment Attorney

Reshad is truly passionate about his work. When I was navigating a complicated matter, he dived in within 24 hours to give measured counsel that was specific to my needs. His unique style is not simply providing legal advice, but bringing a personal tone that resonates with all parties. I felt incred...ibly comfortable with my situation after working with him.

5-Star Recommendation!

Attorney Favors was incredible! He gave me some really wonderful advice that helped me decide what to do with my employer. I didn't hire him (or any attorney for that matter) but it was because the situation worked itself out. I'd absolutely recommend Attorney Favors.

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.
