Posted by anonymous | January 26, 2014 | Elder Law

A true professional that shows caring for her clients. This lady knows Healthcare Law. Words cannot say enough about her gifts.

Ms. Lanier represented our family in lengthy litigation when my Aunt's hairdresser became her emergency guardian. She worked tirelessly to reveal to the court how the frail and elderly can be easily taken advantage. Even though the opposing attorney delayed and delayed the court date, and the haird...resser put our Aunt into Hospice care, we were able to see the hairdresser scolded by the court for many things, including mismanagement of funds and paying a very questionable male friend to 'see about' our Aunt. Thankfully, our Aunt lived long enough to thwart the hairdresser. Ms. Lanier was professional and compassionate. She fought for our Aunt....tooth-and-nail. It is with heartfelt thanks that I write this on behalf of our family.

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.
