Awesome

I have known this attorney for over thirty years. He is without a doubt goal oriented with an exclusive industrious attitude. He personalizes each case as his top priority. He represented me years ago and if I had lost I would not be retired today. He is a man that seeks the truth. So be truthful wit...h him and the results will undoubtedly be solidified.

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.
