Attorney that is Passionate and Driven

I retained Coke Employment Law to assist with legal representation regarding employment separation. The expertise and guidance from Ms. Beth Coke was so welcomed, because I was navigating an unfamiliar path. I would highly recommend Ms. Coke. Her follow through and attention to detail was excellent a...nd she is committed to helping her clients.

Excellent Employment Attorney

Attorney Elizabeth Coke helped me when I needed it most. After she provided me with legal advice about my current employment situation and outlined how my case would move forward, I knew I was in good hands. I would highly recommend Ms. Coke for anyone who values an intelligent approach to finding a ...resolution. Ms. Coke's knowledge of employment issues and her dedication to her clients is evident through how she practices law.

Responsive and Friendly

I hired attorney Coke to review my proposed severance package after 20 years at the same company. She was responsive, easy to understand and provided excellent advice.

Excellent and prompt! She called back!

I was in a panic for lack of information. I called several attorneys but the only one who cared enough to call back was Elizabeth Coke. Her call made a whole world of difference. She explained the possibility of addressing the problem before it became a real problem! I followed her advise and reso...lved a potential big problem....

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.
