Gotta GET GARY ,very cocky team I mean Brittney had boxing gloves on persona from get go ready to fight for my case

I was injured in an auto I went to consultation and Britney took the case she was nice very knowledgeable ,very good explaining process ,some of the front staff are less understanding and can be rude at times when you are calling in more than they think you should ! Twilah acts like a mother but a gr...umpy one their all nice except one I dealt with I don't remember her name but she had a eye rolling problem and snide attitude she seen me one day while Britney was out I didn't like her professionalism but it was clearly just personality issues rather than personal treatment I felt . Gary him self was just straight forward very friendly and very direct with facts very professional and friendly Britney is my favorite but it goes true she's center icon because she's high demand and hard to catch but she's good at calling back I'm very impatient and I'm sure can be difficult too but over all I am very pleased I never felt looked over or neglected and I must add Britney was vital helping me obtain pre settlement loans Britney Gary and twila and Kayla jennefer was all my favorites esp twila bc when I would get frustrated and hasteful shed just turn to moma like and tell me like it was and I couldn't help but to respect her very sweet though

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.
