Bankruptcy and Debt 30%

We live in tough economic times. At every level, people are experiencing financial problems they never expected to encounter. This is worsened when you lose your job but still have the same bills needing to be paid every month. What is not difficult is falling victim to groups that take advantage of people in their time of need. Don't let that happen to you. You deserve to have someone working with you that has been where you are, knows how you feel, and is concerned about YOUR future.

Criminal Defense 25%

The moment you are stopped by a police officer, your life changes and may even fall apart. You need someone to guide you through putting the pieces back together. You have rights to be protected and arguments to be made on your behalf. This is going to be a fight that you don't need to face alone.

The moment you are injured, your mind races, wondering what will happen next. Will you need surgery? Will you miss work? What about your car? You need someone on your side from the moment you are injured, fighting for you, so you can focus on getting better.

Car accident-injury settlement

Mr. Yates did a wonderful job with my case. He reviewed it several times and was very punctual. He did everything I asked and wouldn’t go further without my permission. He kept me up to date and ended up getting me 6x the initial offer that the insurance company offered me. I highly recommend Mr. Yat...es and would definitely hire him again if I needed an attorney.

Mr. Yates represented myself and two other gentlemen that were tied up in a potential lawsuit. He exceeded our expectations and resolved the manner quickly.

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.
