Posted by Heather Lathan | January 19, 2017 | Hired Attorney | Debt Collection

Excellent!

We could not be mods pleased! Mr. Durning was hired by our company to recover a large debt owed to us by another individual. He was ethical, always accessible and secured our settlement in a very short time for a reasonable rate. He kept us informed of the case developments and always gave us sound l...egal advice through out our case. I would recommend him to friends, family and business associates, and I would hire him again without hesitation!

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.
