Excellent Attorney, Knowledgable and Practical

I have consulted with Attorney Bastawros a couple of times. Her knowledge of the law and the legal climate is invaluable. She is conservative and pragmatic. Instead of instantly saying "yes, let's file a lawsuit", she fully and educates her clients to make an informed, practical decision on the be...st course of action after weighing their options. She's everything I would hope for in a trusted legal advisor.

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.
