Exceptional Attorney

We made the right decision to contact Glassman, Wyatt , Tuttle & Cox Law firm Ed Wallis was very professional in knowledge & character. Very personable and well prepared on our behalf . He showed genuine concern for our situation & were fully committed to our case. Communication was superb. Very ...positive experience in this otherwise extremely stressful situation . We were satisfied with the outcome of a fair settlement . I would highly recommended this law firm to anyone . And would not hesitate to use again should I ever require an attorney . - Client in Louisville Ky

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.
