HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

I have met with several attorneys in the past, they bring you into their office and give you their sales pitch with major promises and little substance. This was not the case with Mr. Good. I was pleasantly surprised with his professionalism, knowledge and quick response to my questions. His sense o...f showing care for my situation gave me great relief during one of the biggest hardships of my life. During my case Mr Good carefully guided me through each step which enabled me to have a happy and successful outcome. I would definitely use him again, and would highly recommend him.

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.
