Excellent price, timely manner

Robert Brian Cloninger was an excellent attorney that saved me the hassle of going to court for me. His price was about $300 cheaper than the competition lawyers. He got my case taken care of in a timely manner after I got him the paperwork needed. I needed him to take care of my traffic violation by... the first of the month and as soon as i got him the insurance info he went to court within 2 days. He is and excellent attorney that got back to me promptly when i had any questions. I highly suggest him thank you for looking.

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.
