Exceptional

I have had the pleasure to work with Mr. Slaten and his firm since 2006 as one of our outside counsels for Citibank, N.A. He and his staff were very knowledgeable and prompt with our litigation cases regarding contested foreclosures and bankruptcy adversaries on residential (1-4) family real estate ...loans.

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.
