Detailed, Efficient and Informative

I was injured on my job almost a year ago and was not treated very well by my employer. I knew I would need help getting the treatment I needed so I reached out to The Poirier law firm. The minute I walked into their office I felt like I had chosen the right representation. I was met with a smile , ...professionalism and hospitality from everyone that I encountered., everyone made me feel as though they were appreciative of me being there and eager to assist me. My initial interview with Mrs. Poirier left me even more confident that I would be in very capable hands. She showed a passion for the work that she does (taking care of people), she explained everything in terms that I could understand and that day she started a pattern of informing me, responding to every problem that I encountered quickly and efficiently and keeping me updated. Her assistant checked up on me routinely during the process and even handled many problems I encountered with workers comp herself.. I don’t think anyone want to be injured or have to live for any amount of time on workers comp but if you are in need of an attorney to fight for your rights , The Poirier Law Firm will fight for everyone of them. I’m happy to have recently settled my case in a very favorable way all to the credit of Mrs. Poirier and her staff. I hope I’m never in the need of her services again but if I am, she and her firm will definitely by my choice for representation.

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.
