She is Amazing!

She handled my case really well from start to end. She's very professional, understanding, and responsive whenever I have questions. I was extremely worried about my case, but she was always there to keep me well informed about the status of the case from start to finish. I would highly recommend her...!

Went above and beyond!

Collette and her partner went above and beyond for both my cases on family court/ domestic violence. Most lawyers I met with for a consultation just cared about money and rushed me out. Collette sat down with me and took the time to explain all my options. She got everything I needed done so I could ...move out of state with my child. I'm forever grateful for all the hard work they put into my case.

A very gracious, meticulous and knowledgeable lawyer!

I was faced with a crisis - I needed legal assistance for my son but I was in another state at the time and had no idea of who to turn to. Atty. Drimmer was highly recommended by an acquaintance of mine who acted as guardian for a young man whom she represented. Atty Drimmer returned my call late ev...ening, listened attentively to my dilemma and accepted the task without meeting me or my child and with a promise to pay. She attended court the very next day, met my son and reassured him that she would do her best to assist. My son recently completed one program and is well on the way to completing his other program, after which the charges will be dropped. Atty. Drimmer was very resourceful, kept me abreast of the case progression and also called/emailed reminder for every court hearing. Her professional yet caring demeanor really helped my son to successfully complete his program and he felt that she was very interested in his well being! Thank you Atty Drimmer, thank you very much! Please be assured that I will gladly recommend your service to anyone who may need it. Blessings!! Jennifer

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.
