Tenacious & Dedicated Representation

Mike & Lisa were able to secure a large trial verdict on my behalf. They communicated thoroughly from the moment they took my case to the final resolution. Their communication and confidence helped put my mind at ease even as we went to trial. They fought for my rights and won! Trentalange & Kelley, ...P.A. Law Firm has my highest recommendation.

AWESOME

MR. TRENTALANGE WAS SUPERLATIVE IN THE HANDLING OF MY CASE. THE INSURANCE COMPANY CAVED SHORTLY BEFORE TRIAL AND WE WERE ABLE TO REACH A VERY FAIR SETTLEMENT.

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.
