Excellent Lawyer

I would like to thank Mr. Whitesell and his staff for helping me win the case in court. There is no way I could've done this on my own. Staff always professional & courteous always returned my calls within hours. It took two years I'm sure was difficult getting my paperwork, but I wouldn't know that.... Very professional!

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.
