An Excellent Family Law Attorney

Mr. McLaughlin is an excellent attorney. He is very knowledgeable and has the ability to take a lighthearted approach on subjects that are hard to discuss, which takes the intimidation out of legal matters. He is very professional and lays it all out on the table. You will find no surprises with J...oseph McLaughlin.

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.
