My Life: Giving Me More than My Sight Back

Hughston: Thank you for giving my life back to me. You were more than my attorney, you were my rock on some very tough days. I appreciate that you were willing to go above and beyond in the handling of my accident case. You are a lawyer's lawyer. Continued success, and again thank you to Hare, W...ynn, Newell & Newton, LLP.

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.
