Awesome Lawyer

Tyler represented me in some exceedingly complex business litigation. I'm a tough client, probably because I'm a lawyer (retired now). Tyler was always prepared, well above the call of duty, on time, returned phone calls, very impressive guy. Beyond that, he came up with some unique strategie...s (can't say them here sorry) that got us around some real obstacles... He is a very good writer (something I was never great at)... Without saying the outcome I can say we didn't lose either. Very happy with him, would hire him again in a second. Best luck with your future case.

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.
