Diesnt know domestic violence cases

Because of tgis lady that charged me over 20k and threatened to sue me if I disnt pay up, and whose advice on my ex husband who physically abused me snd I told her he strangled me and I got a protective order, her idiotic advice never allowed me to see my daughters again because she is so naive that ...with a physical abuser, she doesnt even know tgat rhey play hard ball against women they abuse during a divorce. Please, do not use her as a lawyer, ladies

Professional and Unflappable

Ms. Poss was my attorney for a very ugly divorce case. Brandy secured for me a settlement with which I was happy. She listened intently to my needs and concerns, but also was able to find common ground with the opposing attorney to find a mutually acceptable solution. She also returned calls and e...mails within an acceptable timeframe, and her billed hours were also reasonable. I would recommend her without reservation to help you through a difficult time in your life.

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.
