NO COMMUNICATION ❗️

We have not recieved any returned communication via phone, email or mail. We've left numerous of calls and messages regarding my husband's next court date and they havent returned any. We had to call the Jacksonville Courthouse to obtain his next court date. Absolutely ridiculous... We thought we pai...d a scammer so we had to ask the clerk if in fact this was a real practice. As the saying goes, "You get what you pay for". Be aware... We were also told he was going to wrap up the case the last time we spoke so therefore we wouldn't have known it was continued if it wasn't for me personally calling the court house.

Do not hire!

I hired Trevor Avery and paid him in full a year ago. I haven’t heard from him since despite numerous calls, emails, voicemails. He pocketed my money and never handed my case.

Super Attorney

Represented me in a moving traffic violation case. Just the best from start to finish. Kept me informed throughout the process, up-front with his fees and got the outcome I'd hoped for. You could not find a better attorney to represent your case.

Exceptional Lawyer

Everything was great from the beginning, filled out the paperwork detailing the outcome I wanted from the case and he executed flawlessly. I highly recommend Trevor Avery. Hopefully, I won't need his services again but if I ever get another ticket in the area, he’ll be the first person I call.

Hands down the worst

He didn't do anything for me that I asked. Requested several times for him to file a motion of contempt for an ex who violated court orders, Attorney Avery said he would but never did. This was an ongoing matter for over six months. Went to court several times and he would do the opposite of what I a...sked to be represented for. Asked for many things to happen and he said he would work on them, months go by, same request is made, and still nothing is filed. His paralegals never call you back or email you back. When I finally left and retained a new attorney, his office refunded me a check for far less than it should've been. They can't explain the missing charges and refuse to respond to me. His paralegal told me that one court matter wasn't going to be calendared, then come Monday morning he's calling me saying that it's actually going on that same day. Nobody thought to reach out to me so I can attend the hearing. Another time a hearing was scheduled and nobody told me and a motion for contempt is being filed against me. The same thing I requested to happen to my ex just weeks before.

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.
