Grateful for Attorney Meredith Hilton

I have a son who is 28 years old with a triple disability. Several years ago, I paid another attorney a large sum.of money to do a Special Needs Trust, Will, Power of Attorney, Advanced Directive. I realized a few years ago, they were done wrong and were worthless. My experience working with ...Meredith Hilton has been exceptional. She listens, knows exactly what is supposed to happen, is supportive of a parents worries, has expert advice, and truly cares. I know without a doubt my son is protected now thanks to Meredith Hilton. She is also fair in her billing and never did I feel even slightly taken advantage of as I have with other attorneys. I have referred others to Meredith Hilton as she is simply the best at what she does and who she is as a person. I strongly recommend Meredith Hilton and have every intention of using her services for any other issues in the future.

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.
