Excellent experience

We had a great experience working with Mr. McClafferty. Mr. McClafferty got into every little detail of our case, and presented the matter in a truly professional way. We were appealing several violation notices that our HOA’s Architectural Committee sent us regarding our property. One notice was ...actually directly violating our rights as the residents of our Community. The second one was at the discretion of ARC whether or not to rule in our favor. Mr. McClafferty submitted a letter of appeal on our behalf to the Board. The letter was extremely well-written and presented both cases to the Board beautifully! We won both cases we were appealing for. Mr. McClafferty is a true professional and a very caring person to work with. We highly recommend him!

Very Impressed!

We had a complicated case that lasted for a few years. The other party was not understanding or sympathetic at all that my family went through a very long and tough time with identity theft which lead us to this case. We were extremely impressed with Lawrence McClafftery's work. He kept us updated wi...th everything at all times and is very knowledgable. He is very well mannered and professional. Our case was over in a short time with his help. Compared to other lawyers, his pricing was just a fraction of the cost with better service! Thank you Lawrence!!

He impressed me.

I just won a tough trial. I never expected I would see this kind of devoted lawyer on earth. I could not remember details in my case sometimes but he never missed any events, dates and words. He did so concentrate on the trial, it looked like he forgot about outside world. I really appreciate his p...rofessional commitment. Even though I demanded a little unique wishes, he completely respected and made me achieve what I wanted so much.

Left us in the dark

Over and over, he left us in the dark about important news in our lawsuit. Was very condescending and unpleasant if we complained or asked questions - definitely had the attitude "I have a law degree, and I am smarter than you. Who are you to ask questions?" Client service and an attitude of carin...g are really lacking at this firm.

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.
