Did a great job for my elderly mother

My elderly mother's legal affairs were a mess - Mr. Sim was very thorough, and quickly determined there were many issues of concern regarding her estate. As busy as I know he is, he always took the time to answer many, many questions we continually had doing the whole "clean-up" process, and he deli...vered an estate package that even my hard to please mother said she wished she had received from other attorneys in past years. When we went into sign the documents, he took the time to explain every detail to her before she signed everything. Four years ago Mr. Sim prepared my own estate package, and when I was looking for an estate attorney for my mother, he was the only one I would consider.

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.
