Posted by Darleen | November 16, 2017 | Hired Attorney

This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

I found an excellent lawyer and a great friend!

When my Aunt suddenly passed away, as executor of her estate, my daughter and I flew to Atlanta from the West Coast. We were driving to the house when I remarked to my daughter I needed to find an estate attorney. She said, "There is one right there." I turned around and drove back to Jenkins & Ro...berts LLC Law Office. Mr. Jenkins talked with me and relayed what he needed from me to settle the estate. So easy and direct. He was always available to answer questions, and I had a lot. Not only did he help me with the estate, but also helped with selling my Aunt's house . Since I live so far away it was a God Send. All was completed in much less time than I expected. Not only do I feel I had an outstanding Lawyer, but I made a great friend. ALL of Mr. Jenkins staff was exceptional and made me feel so at ease with an unpleasant task I had to complete. I would recommend the Law Office of Jenkins & Roberts LLC to one and all.

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.
