Satisfaction Guaranteed! Awesome Lawyer!

I hired Whitney in a personal injury case. I got rear ended and was injured terribly. Whitney came to my house personally each time we had to meet so that I didn't have to feel any more pain than necessary or go through the pain of traveling to her office. She truly cared for my best interests and... the interests of my family. She kept me informed every step of the way and fought hard to recover what I deserved. I am so glad that I chose Whitney as my representative. Although we met as lawyer and client, we ended up as friends. She is really unconventional and wonderful. I would definitely recommend that you use her as she is really a great person.

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.
