Pitbull in a Skirt

How do you describe a lawyer that literally gave me my life back. I was serving a life sentence for something I did not do! Rachel took my case an fought for me like a Pitbull in a skirt. After over 259,000.00 to other lawyers she took case for peanuts compared to other lawyers she kept my family inf...ormed an after 34 years 9 months 19days an a 11hours, I walked out of a Baltimore Court house an into the arms of my family!! All of this would have never happened without Rachel. I would refer her to anyone. She helped resurrected me from the dead to the life I have now . An she personally stays in touch with me an even got all my paperwork straight so no parole probation or nothing she just didn't forget me or my family after the case is over. In court she's a Pitbull out of court she's a Sweetheart!

She is always willing to listen and talk with her clients candidly about the best course of action to take in seeking the de...sired relief for the client. If you want a fighter in your corner, then Ms. Kamins is the right choice.

Excellent Lawyer

I was serving two life sentences, plus 70 years and she worked tirelessly on my behalf. She made me feel like a person not just a client or dollar amount. She listened to my request, followed through with the best course of action, and kept me informed every step of the way. If I every knew anyone de...dicated to the quality of your experience, it Ms. Rachel Marblestone Kamins. She's the best lawyer I've ever had representing me and I'm not just saying that because I have my freedom. I'm saying it because it's true...

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.
