Reputation exceeds performance

Makes big claims about what he can and will do to achieve your ends, but does not deliver. Does not communicate clearly and concisely. Often does not respond to questions in emails, but charges you for the email anyway. Some filings contained spelling and grammar errors. Is polite, to a fault: his po...liteness prevents him from advocating for the client; he seems afraid to offend the lawyers on the other side. On trial day he hushed me when I asked him to specify a key detail in the settlement papers. He will drag it out and take you to the bank. Ka-ching!

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.
