Professional and Knowledgeable

Mr. Batemen talked with me over a 1/2 hour explaining in detail and answering questions and I was not a client. He was detailed and thorough and provided excellent and valuable information to me. Most appreciative.

Posted by Cindy | July 28, 2017

Mr. Bateman was generous with his time.

I did not hire Mr. Bateman as an attorney as one was not needed, but I appreciate Mr. Bateman answering a few questions I had. He was helpful and generous to use his time to help me without compensation.

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.
