The most amazing client /lawyer relationship I've ever encountered.

I hired Susan Gray after being neglected and put off by my previous lawyer. The experience I had with Susan was one of great confidence and trust. My case wasn't put on hold or not interesting enough for her. She made this a simple,fast transaction. I would Recommend her to anyone. Her legal assistan...t Cramelia is a workaholic and will answer any questions as soon a s physically possible. I am thrilled at the outcome and couldn't be more thankful.

Perfect Choice during a Stressful Life Decision

Ms. Gray was my attorney thought my divorce process. She was both knowledgeable with her advice to me and sympathetic to my situation. Both Ms. Gray and Ms. Neal, her legal assistant, were always in communication with me either via email or phone when I had questions during the divorce process. Ms.... Gray expertly handled the separation agreement and then the petition for divorce. Ms. Gray personally called me several times, informing me of the updates if Ms. Neal was out of the office. They both made this emotional time in my life less cumbersome and took care of every detail. I am very grateful to Ms. Gray and will be recommending her to others should they need representation for family related law matters.

Kudos to Susan Gray and Legal Assistant, Cramelia Neal

I am deeply grateful someone referred me to Susan Gray. This being the first time ever to go through a divorce, I was apprehensive about EVERYTHING. My consultation with Susan was thorough and I felt that she would truly "have my back" and I hired her. I can unequivocally testify she did have my ba...ck. She stood up for me. She was clear and concise as what could be expected and very reassuring. She and her legal assistant, Cramelia Neal, remained on top of all things that needed to be addressed and made sure the process of divorce was negotiated fairly and timely. I did not feel I ever fell victim to the stereotypical scene of an attorney attempting to run up the fees. They were extremely fair. Both Susan and Cramelia truly cared about me both legally and personally. I am happy. Thank you Susan and Cramelia for making a sad life event be processed through as quickly and easily as possible.

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.
