This review is from a potential client who consulted with this attorney.

Courteous, Knowledgeable and Professional

Ryan McCarty has been our attorney in the past, and we followed him when he took a position with the firm. We respect him for his courtesy and knowledge; he is easy to talk to yet still very professional. I would recommend him without any misgivings.

client

Mr. McCarty took a case which I had been told could not be resolved. He looked at it and, without hesitation, suggested a concise plan of action. I had to do some things, but he oversaw and guided me through this. In the mean time, he prepared the entire case for court in timely manner. On court day... , he prepared me and the proceeding went smoothly. I got what I petitioned for and my case was resolved . Mr. McCarty is extremely professional and totally client friendly. In addition, he (his firm) ended up charging me a very fair & reasonable fee for services rendered . I would highly recommend him.

Honesty and Integrity

Mr. McCarty has helped me in several legal matters. He is professional, honest, and knowledgable. Throughout our matters he kept me informed about what was at hand and what was upcoming in the legal process. There is no doubt who I will call for my future legal needs.

Ryan McCarty is a great lawyer!!

Ryan McCarty was an excellent attorney, from the very start he was very straight forward with me. He let me know what we were dealing with and what I needed to do to help him out. He also kept me involved in every aspect of my case so that I was never in the dark. He was also very accessible any time... i needed him I could easily reach him through emailing or calling him.

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.
