Excellent Attorney

Mr. Schnackel handled my inquiry with utmost professionalism and communicated well. I was very pleased with the outcome of the matter I hired him for, and the way it was handled. He is extremeley knowledgable, and will go the extra mile to make sure the client is fully satisfied with no unanswered ...questions. I felt like he truly cared about me and my case. Will hire him again in the future. Highly recommended!

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.
