Great Person who won my case

I had recently found out that my son was being physically abused by his father, my former husband. I hired Michael as my attorney and we filed a motion for an injunction on behalf of my son for temporary relief because it was illegal to not allow my ex-husband to see him if no court order said otherw...ise. The injunction was granted, which was HUGE. Now i am going to fight for full custody. Michael Thornton is a good lawyer, but even more so a good person. He legitimately cares and does not pass a judging eye. After the case was won, the other lawyer for my ex-husband called him over to discuss what will happen next. The other lawyer started yelling at him and was being down right rude, but Michael, being the professional that he is, politely disagreed and came back to us. I was very impressed by the way he carries himself. Clearly the other lawyer was just mad because he lost.

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.
