A Class Act

I can’t thank Will enough. He was able to make a very stressful and inconvenient situation very smooth for me, in a profession where attorneys will take advantage of your situation & vulnerability, Will took care of me from the handling of administrative tasks to the connections he has from having ma...jor skin in the game, I’m forever grateful and recommend him highly.

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.
