Foreclosure

I received a notice of foreclosure and had no idea what to do, who to call, or when I would be kicked out of my home. I spoke with several local attorneys, and wasn't satisfied with their approach on defending my case or the cost for representation. I finally talked with a friend who suggested I spea...k to Mr. Ray, so I setup an appointment and I am glad that I did. Mr, Ray thoroughly reviewed my case with me, listened to me with attentiveness, located online records and thoroughly explained my options, and what defenses could be used in my case. Mr. Ray and his staff are courteous, respond promptly(I sent an email on a Saturday and received a response about an hour later), attentive, and actually care about their clients. I am very thankful for everything Mr. Ray has done for me (kept me in my home for over 2 years, and continues to fight my foreclosure case). If you are in need of an experienced foreclosure/litigation attorney, I strongly suggest you retain Mr. Ray.

Look elsewhere....

Does not return calls or emails, and does not keep me updated. I really had high hopes for this attorney. I thought that he was really going to go to bat for me, but he has let me down. I just don't hear from him.

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.
