Professional

The professionalism that I observed when working with Julia as an interpreter convinced me to hire her services for my son's conservatorship. She was honest, thorough, knowledgeable, and very respectful of my son's special needs and family's circumstances. We were granted conservatorship very speedil...y. Thanks, Julia!

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.
