Thank you Mr. Franco!

Mr. Franco really helped me through a difficult time. He was able to get me more money from the insurance companies that I didn't think was possible. He was compassionate and understanding of my situation and worked hard to achieve the best outcome for my case. Thank you Mr. Franco! I will be com...ing to you again with any future needs! (I have already recommended him to my family and friends!) Thank you again!

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.
