Highly Recommended

Bailey Farrin has assisted me on two occasions with traffic violations. She is approachable, compassionate, fair minded and communicates in a clear and straight forward manner. Time will be taken to ensure that your case is taken to court under optimal circumstances. Bailey's knowledge of the law ...and years of experience will serve you very well. I highly recommend her for your legal needs.

Compassionate Legal Help

I can't remember how many lawyer jokes I've heard in my life, but I honestly don't believe any of them can apply to Ms. Farrin. What sets Bailey apart is her genuine concern for her clients well-being. I have consulted with Ms. Farrin several times about very serious automobile matters. Her knowledge... of the applicable ordinances, and the best way to move forward were clearly evident. What was equally impressive was her concern about how I felt during the process. She really eased my anxiety about the situation and made me feel that she cared about how the entire experience could be managed.

Competent Attorney

I don't generally write reviews but feel compelled to do so when I find competent professionals. Bailey represented me in a professional and respectful manner. She explained the best case and likely case scenarios. She was driven to achieve best case and succeeded which is saving me serious $$ in ...insurance premiums. Thanks Bailey !

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.
