Beyond excellent representation

Mr. Freeman has represented my corporations for over 25 years. I am the house counsel and observed first hand his abilities. I have never observed a better litigator..He has the unique ability to successfully present evidence through the testimony of our CEO and our minimum wage employees. He liste...ns to my business issues and then advises me as to both the legal & practical courses of action. In these 25 plus years, I have never once had to question any legal bill tendered by him.

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.
