Aaron Book- The only guy for the job

I was referred to Aaron by my real estate attorney who has been in the business over 30 years. He immediately recommended Aaron when he heard the situation and was confident that he could help. He was in fact, a tremendous help throughout our case and I cannot speak highly enough of his responsivene...ss, professionalism, and attention to detail. If your seeking an attorney for any type of legal reason, look no further.

Criminal defense lawyer | Apr 29

Relationship: Opposing Counsel on matter

"Aaron Book is a phenomenal attorney. His common sense, no nonsense approach to representing his clients provides excellent returns and outcomes. I worked as a prosecutor for years and had a number of cases against Aaron. Each time he brought well researched and considered arguments on behalf of his clients. In the courtroom, Aaron's personality and demeanor is everything a litigator should strive to be. Even in moments when I disagreed with his argument, I could not help but be sympathetic to his position after listening to his points before the court."

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.

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.
