Sharp and Insightful - Highly Recommend

I am very happy with my selection of Mr. Rhodes for representation in my employment matter. As a fellow attorney, I recognize the significance of legal expertise, efficiency, and transparent billing practices. I can confidently affirm that Mr. Rhodes excels in all these aspects. Throughout our eng...agement, he displayed an impressive level of intelligence and professionalism and was very easy to collaborate with. He always responded quickly to communications with me and kept me in the loop of everything that was happening. He is thorough in his thought process and practical in his actions. I would undoubtedly engage him should the need for legal counsel arise again and I wholeheartedly recommend him to anyone seeking dependable, honest, and skilled representation.

Great Professional to have in your Corner

My interactions with Mr. Rhodes were easy and thorough. I appreciated his attention to detail and his timely guidance and feedback. He is definitely someone you would want on your side and not against you.

Great Representation

I hired Mr. Rhodes about an employment issue. He was very professional, responsive, honest, hardworking, and did all that he could. He also went out of his way to contact a colleague for consultation in order to address a related matter that was outside of his speciality. He had that issue resolved w...ithin 72 hours when I could not get results after 2 - 3 weeks. Unfortunately, the other party was intent on continuing to behave in an illegal and unethical way, and I had to take the case in another direction. However, Mr. Rhodes gave the best legal advice for me and returned my unused retainer. He is a very capable attorney and an honorable gentleman. He definitely earned his positive reviews here, and I would recommend him.

Professional and very responsive

Mr. Rhodes was very responsive to questions about my case and offered great insights about the best approach to take to increase my chances of winning the case. Very informative in his answers and offered me other lawyers contacts for me to get additional consulting if needed. Great service and hi...ghly recommended. Thanks Mr. Rhodes

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.
