Posted by Leigh | April 04, 2016 | Hired Attorney | Limited Liability Company (LLC)

estate planning, contracts and LLC

Bruce Orwin has recently assisted me on numerous occasions, and has done an exceptional job across the board. Previously, I have hired Bruce to assist me with estate and will planning, and to establish a trust for my child. Bruce has assisted me in writing contracts for tenants, as well as lease agre...ements, and most recently helped me to create a Limited Liability Corporation. Bruce is professional, courteous, punctual, diligent and meticulous. I will continue to contract with Bruce to assist me with my legal matters. I highly recommend Bruce as an exceptionally skilled attorney with the highest integrity and excellent work ethic.

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.
