When Seeking Protection Leaves You Less Protected.

I second the concerns expressed in the previous review. If you are a victim of domestic abuse seeking protection for yourself or your child, understand that the family court process may not deliver the protection or fairness you expect. Even with substantial documentation and evidence supportin...g your concerns, you may find yourself facing reduced or eliminated parenting time. My experience left me questioning whether the outcome reflected the evidence and the best interests of the child, or the significant advantages that legal representation and courtroom familiarity can provide. Do not enter this process assuming that evidence alone guarantees justice. Document everything. Understand your rights. Prepare accordingly.

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.
