This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

She is definitely one of the very best lawyers.....

She helped me out of a very difficult situation I got myself into. As a lawyer she is extremely technically competent, thoroughly knows how to move within the system, has excellent network and immediate access to both the court system and other legal resources .Having said this about her "professiona...l competence", I even more appreciated her treating me like a human and not a criminal. She is very personable and made me feel that I was going to be "taken care of". She listens more than talks (unlike other lawyers). I will always consult her for all legal help I may need in the future, as the first stop, even if an issue may not be her direct area of interest. She is simply a very decent human being, besides being an extremely competent professional.

Estate Law Consultation

Audrey Creighton was extremely responsive to my online inquiry. During our conversation I never felt rushed. She listened and offered her advice in a clear, thoughtful and simple manner. My case is out of state, I wish I could hire her to represent me! I believe if I follow her some of her suggesti...ons everything will work out as it should. Thank you, Audrey! I highly recommend her if you need an excellent attorney.

Outstanding Attorney

Ms. Creighton, in my opinion is an excellent lawyer, she was always honest and upfront with me and my family about every aspect of the case. She always returned phone calls and letters promptly. She did exactly what she said she was going to do and fought very hard for me as her client.

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.
