Posted by Paul | December 09, 2022 | Hired Attorney | Wrongful Termination

Phenomenal to work with, brilliant, driven, exceptional

If you've worked with enough attorneys before, you know that the experience varies drastically from one lawyer to another, and that the quality of the experience is a function of both the counselor's skill and dedication and your own ability to provide the information they need to win your case. R...egarding the former, Andrew is the most skilled attorney I've ever engaged. As to the latter, he both (1) clearly communicated what he needed me to give him and (2) dug into the meat of the case to discover facts that weren't readily apparent but were critical to my wrongful termination case. Additionally, he deftly prepared and guided me through the various interviews and negotiations with my former employer and provided sound, rational advice regarding how to respond to various situations and what to expect. All of this made a highly stressful and traumatic situation much calmer and more manageable for me. That's a rare quality and skill, in my experience, one that is highly prized. On top of all of this, he's affable, kind, measured, thorough, and extremely easy to talk to/work with/be around. I cannot recommend him strongly enough.

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.
