First-Rate Lawyer

I second all the positive things said by others. Bo is professional, knowledgeable, meticulous, accessible, and genuinely concerned about his clients' welfare. He will not waste your money, but if forced to take a case to trial, he will be thoroughly prepared.

Posted by Michael | January 22, 2016 | Hired Attorney | Lawsuits & Disputes

Excellence in difficult matters

Thoughtful, attentive, responsive, thorough, and accessible. Bo is of the highest order. He ushered me through the most difficult circumstance my life has faced with professionalism, integrity and always steps ahead of the opposition. MP

"Before I met Bo, I asked several attorneys about their experiences with him. Every single attorney I asked spoke highly of his qualifications and reputation for thorough preparation. And, after meeting Bo, it was clear why he was held in such high regard. Not only is Bo's knowledge of the law, professionalism and dedication to his practice beneficial to his clients, it is also beneficial to the legal profession as a whole . I endorse this lawyer."

"Bo and I are contemporaries. Back when I was getting started, I would happily take the cases he was too busy to work. Bo knows the law, loves his family, loves his work and is considered one of the top shelf attorneys in Mississippi who specializes in family law."

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.
