Five Stars is NOT enough!

We had a very complex series of construction issues that culminated in the successful discharge of a fraudulent lein, firing/replacing incompetant/unscrupulous general contractor, and finally defending against a frivolous lawsuit. Our new home construction was a nightmare; Mr. Hatler was the lone br...ight spot and is an excellent person to have in your corner! I rely on him as a sounding board and trust his instincts and abilities at all levels. Fives stars is not enough! He deserves Ten Plus!!!

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.
