Lesson Learned

I hired Ms. Rippee to represent me in a commercial matter. As things progressed with the representation, I began to question her legal skills and judgment. I should have terminated her at that point. She did a poor job to say the least. Plus, I was billed a king's ransom. I do not recommend this lawy...er.

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.
