very good

Mr Lawrence represented me in my divorce. We got custody of my son and ebery other lawyer told me it was a lost cause. I feel like god put M. Lawrence in my life for a reason and it is a blessing. He worked with me on payments too. I couldnot believe it.

Various support

Mr Lawrence has helped us on many occasions . It started with our adoption. Mr Lawrence created a semeless experience with no hiccups ! This experience has allowed our older children to hire Mr Lawrence to help with their custody issues. He's knowledgable and really does have your best interest at h...eart! The only issue is that his rates are really lower than market value!

Affordable for a reason

Great price, very polite and friendly but as the saying goes, "you get what you pay for". Don't expect him to have an office (no big deal), don't expect immediate return calls or in my case none at all. He did represent me in three cases; child support, joint custody and a restraining order and he su...ccessfully was able to meet my needs. I would of gave him 4 stars a cross the board if he just returned my phone calls a little sooner rather than weeks later and in my last case at a minimum emailed me vs disappearing. Payment on my behalf was never an issue. I was left clueless and that's something I wouldn't recommend anyone do to their clients.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education

  • 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.
