Brilliant and dedicated attorney.

I consulted this attorney on multiple issues, including probate issues, breach of contract and other civil claims. Her knowledge was impressive and her drive and dedication to the professional just blew my mind. She raises the bar for lawyers, no doubt!

Great attorney who fights for her clients

I had a will contest matter. I retained her law firm to assist me with this matter and the three attorneys at her firm were amazing. Tania explained everything to me with such detail and patience. She made a very tough time for my family go as easy as possible. I definitely recommend her as a pro...bate litigator

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.
