Posted by Derek | April 14, 2021 | Hired Attorney

This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

Worst lawyer to ever represent you or your children.

Did not do as he said he was going to do. Chargers for services without a detailed bill explaining what he was charging for. Very biased. Recklessly tore apart a home. Took over a year to do the things he said he would do. You will regret the day you ended up meeting this lawyer. Run.

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.
