Excellent Attorney

From the first visit to our last correspondence, Chinwe was excellent. She communicated and practically predicted that if I was patient I would get the right outcome from my case. She worked diligently and fast. I am 100% satisfied.

Top notch legal services

Great experience! Chinwe Kpaduwa, Esq. obviously has passion for her profession and she delivers. Very thorough and communicates with her clients as often as necessary without leaving them in any distress. She went far beyond what I expected out of an adequate Attorney. I am very pleased with the exc...eptional service I received and she'll be the first that comes to mind if any one needs legal services in Maryland.

BEST PERSONAL INJURY LAWYER IN THE DMV AREA

I initially contacted Ms. Chinwe in October of 2017 after I was involved in an accident where I was T-boned by someone who cut across 4 lanes and ran directly into the driver's side of my vehicle. A month and a half later in December 2017, my son and I were involved in a hit and run accident in whi...ch the driver totaled my vehicle. Ms. Chinwe is very pleasant, keeps you informed about every detail. If you have any questions and/or concerns she would gladly explained the process to you with no hesitation. She is knowledgeable and thorough. Quick response time. I would HIGHLY recommend to anyone involved in a car accident and/or have experienced personal injury of some sort. Chinwe is awesome.

Criminal Case

Ms. Kpaduwa was very professional and kept me updated on my case. Also, when I was about to freak out, Ms. Kpaduwa arranged to meet with me to answer any concerns I had and discussed with me how Maryland criminal system works to keep me from worrying prior to the date the court set for me to hear my... case. It turned out I ended up not having to appear in front of judge after all due to Ms. Kpaduwa communicating with the District Attorney assigned to the case. Ms. Kpaduwa filed to have my record expunged immediately after my case was dismissed in court and emailed me with the document for my file. I was 100 percent pleased with the way Ms. Kpaduwa handled my case. If I ever need a lawyer for a specific issue, I will certainly reach out to Ms. Kpaduwa for help as well as refer others to her firm.

Very Professional, great advice, immediate response

I'm very happy I found Ms. Kpaduwa. I faced a situation and did not know how handle it properly. She began working right away and the issue was taken care of faster than I thought. She offers great legal advice. As soon as I spoke with her I knew I wanted her to represent me. She is extremely kn...owledgeable. I did not have to deal with the court or explain anything she took care of everything for me. I would definitely recommend Ms. Kpaduwa. She is really great and if I ever need representation again I will be reaching out to her.

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.
