So Wonderful!

I was worried about filing for divorce form my husband. I was worried that because he had studied as a paralegal, he would be able to manipulate the situation. He tried to convince me that if he contested the divorce that we could be ordered to couples counseling. Elizabeth put me at ease though. She... walked me through the process, and was there to answer my questions and quell my fears. She never held back or sugarcoated anything. I would recommend any of my family or friends to see her for any family legal issues. Thank you Elizabeth!

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.
