She's the Best!

I was presented with a situation that left me feeling hopeless. I saw an Avvo commercial and it led me straight to Madelyn. Madelyn was very informative and attentive to all of my needs. Other than being my legal representation, she became a counselor for me in my time of despair. I wish I could keep... this gem to my self but I have to share her with others. I will most definitely recommend her to any one in need of a great attorney!

Professional , Responsive and Great to work with

Madelyn worked on my traffic ticket. She was extremely professional and on top of things. Very responsive to queries and got it taken care end to end. I will highly recommend Madelyn's services.

Criminal Defense advice session

She was very nice, professional, and helpful. She answered all the questions I had clearly and confidently and provided us with the name of another attorney to call if we wanted. She even told us that we can call her back later today if we needed more help. Very nice and helpful woman, I highly ...recommend.

Criminal Defense advice session

Instead of her telling me I can not go to jail for not paying a pay day loan she advised me to get a lawyer. I contacted a lawyer and he gave me all i needed to know for free. He said it is a major scam going on and checked the warrant database to insure there was not a warrant out for my arrest.

The Avvo advice session can be only as effective as the information provided to me during the session. Apparently this client and I had some miscommunication. However, I am glad the caller was able to resolve the issue.

Awesome Attorney

Ms. Suriel is a great lawyer. She's very personable, compassionate, and professional. She handled my case with such tenacity and dedication for justice to prevail. I would hire her again in a heartbeat.

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.
