Posted by anonymous | May 06, 2018 | Hired Attorney | Insurance

Equine Mortality Claim

With less than a month before the filing deadline, Tammy was able to engineer the filing of an appeal to an insurance denial in an out-of-state court which resulted in a six figure settlement for the loss of my thoroughbred mare. I am a former CFO of a large tech company. In my opinion, her performan...ce was extraordinary on my behalf.

Very knowledgeable and excellent representation

Tammy represented me involving equine suit. She is extremely knowledgeable in the equine field which made it easy to discuss the details. I would recommend her highly to anyone in need of a professional and experienced lawyer.

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.
