Thank You!!

Ms. Gilbert was always professional and attentive to my case relevant to the traffic citations I received from a motor vehicle collision on May 4, 2020. Her communication skills are excellent. Ms. Gilbert was easy to talk with and her legal explanations were easy to understand. She was patient whe...n I would ask her to clarify and often would present the concept in a different way to facilitate my understanding. Ms. Gilbert was able to diffuse my anxiety (my first court experience) and expertly achieved the best legal outcome for me. I am appreciative of Ms. Gilbert's work on my behalf and will advise others who need an experienced, knowledgeable and caring attorney, to seek her advice.

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.
