Highly Recommended

Mr. Izell was referred to me by a friend on a complicated estate case. He and his office were very thorough, knowledgeable and always responded very quickly. They did a good job of updating me frequently and always provided me with copies of anything they submitted on my behalf. They also maintained ...a compassionate awareness of the stress the case put on me. I hired him based on a recommendation and would happily pass that recommendation on to others!

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.
