I couldn’t ask for a better lawyer

When I thought all was lost I finally found this lawyer she was a god send. Not only is she very knowledgeable about the law but she took the time to explain everything to me in a way I could understand, answered any and all questions I had and actually made me feel like I finally had someone on my s...ide. I can not say enough good things about her. I would highly recommend this lawyer to anyone who needs any legal help.

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.
