Posted by Robin | August 13, 2020 | Hired Attorney | Debt Collection

Excellent for High End Debt Cases

Mr. Ferrara is professional, courteous and extremely successful with high end debt cases. We had several clients who refused to pay their dues, expenses and fees. Mr. Ferrara closed each case with a positive outcome for the club and little failure from the clients to fulfill their end of the agreemen...t. He communicates clearly and is more than happy to explain the legalese as it pertains to each case. I would highly recommend Mr. Ferrara for your business needs.

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.
