excellent lawyer

My husband and I approached Mr. Baxter after several glowing recommendations by his previous clients. We are part of a condo community in Fairfax County that was on the brink of taking out an unnecessary multi million dollar loan that would have wasted money and made the condos unaffordable for the m...ajority of the families. Mr. Baxter came in and worked tirelessly with us and over 30 other owners and thanks to him we turned this around by filing a lawsuit to stop the project as part of the overall strategy he recommended - that in the end the community had the power to make real change by electing a new board of directors. The community listened to him and took action and for that reason we now have a new board of directors who is working for the best interests of all the families. Mr. Baxter is extremely responsive, ethical, and knowledgeable with a lot of energy and proved himself as an excellent lawyer overall and we fully recommend him.

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.
