Fantastic Litigator

Kyle worked on a complicated breach of contract case stemming from a Franchise Agreement. He demonstrated a detailed knowledge of the court system and the applicable case law. We ultimately prevailed on all issues and won a $200,000 plus judgment. Along the way Kyle communicated frequently and kept u...s well informed. Kyle will be my first call for any subsequent legal matter. He'll either handle it himself, or refer me to someone with more knowledge in a particular area - but he's definitely my first call.

Thorough and Very Informative

Kyle is very thorough and informative. He constantly kept me abreast of procedures and case news. He was very flexible to my needs and schedule and had concrete answers for every question that I had. I was never left in the dark with Kyle or had to wonder what his plan was.

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.
