Wonderful Experience!

We were pessimistic about contacting another attorney after no communication from ones we had previously contacted. We contacted Mr. Slaughter through email and he responded personally the same day, after business hours. He then took the time to refer us to another associate that worked specifically ...in the area where we needed help. Going above and beyond he also took the time to check on us after we met with the other attorney. The overall customer service and kindness was so refreshing. I strongly recommend Mr. Slaughter and his fellow Associates.

Better than we could have hoped for!

Mr. Slaughter took on our case when all seemed hopeless. He was recommended to us through HOA-NC and many management companies. He was respectful, professional and amazing to watch in a courtroom and around constituents.

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.
