An Outstanding Attorney

I was represented by Lionel Lofton and his firm in a medical malpractice suit. I have never had the need to hire an attorney before so I was very unsure of the process. From the first meeting, I immediately felt at ease and for the first time since my illness I felt like someone understood and was ...on my side. Lionel and Angela Pittard (Lionel’s paralegal ) were so patient explaining everything and also gave me a timeline of what I could expect. They kept me up to speed with all that was going on. I received copies in the mail of all correspondence on my behalf and when I had questions they were available at all times. Lionel negotiated a very generous settlement in my case in a timely manner without having to go to court. Lionel recently negotiated a settlement in an injury suit for a good friend of mine I referred to him. I have and will continue to recommend Lionel Lofton.

Attorney who fights for you

It's relly simple if you are looking for a attorney who will win your case then look no more. I have known Mr. Lofton for years and found him and his staff to be the best all around people who care and get the job done to your advantage. We have used him for years no matter what time of day you need ...him he's there, you can reach him or Angela as a team they are the best.

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.
