Fla Bar Character and Fitness Hearing

Tor and Eric walked me through the gauntlet that is dealing with the Florida Bar. I knew I was going to have a handful of issues with the character and fitness review, and they assisted me from the application stage through my eventual hearing. I felt confident and prepared when I went before the Bar... and ended up being cleared to practice within 6 days of my hearing. If you're in the unfortunate position of having to deal with the Bar's bureaucratic Leviathan, do yourself a favor and call Tor.

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.
