Probate lawyer | Dec 06

Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

"Sidney is considered by virtually every lawyer in this part of Alabama as the genius of the Probate Code. Some think that the judges call him for advice. Whether or not that is true, I can attest to his wisdom and willingness to share his interpretation of the law with younger lawyers. If I needed help with a probate matter, he would be the first person I would call."

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.
