Claim representative for an automobile insurance company

Dennis is by far the most professional and ethical attorney that I have worked with in the past 15 years. He takes pride in his work and truly cares about his clients. I am very pleased with the results of every case he has handled. He is extremely knowledgeable and aggressive. I would highly recomm...end him to anyone who is looking for an excellent attorney.

Personal injury lawyer | Jun 23

Relationship: Worked together on matter

"I endorse this lawyer. Dennis represented an employer who my client worked for when he was injured. The insurance company attempted to deny workers' compensation benefits to my client. Dennis was an excellent advocate for the employer and did most of the work pro bono because the employer could not afford to pay."

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.
