Great guy with solid knowledge

Colin really helped me out with a jam I found myself in, he came through with expertise and tackled every problem with precision until the absolute best case scenario was the outcome. Appreciate all the work he has done and continues to do.

Defense Attorney

I hired him to defend in a felony trial. He dug in deep. Called expert witnesses, police and subject matter experts. He was very to the point. No sugar coating. Fought hard and won!

Amazing

Colin has represented me twice and has done an exceptionally great job. First case he got dui dropped to a reckless opp and was able to avoid the dui penalties. Second case he got 2 dui charges dropped down to 1 and was able to lessen my driving suspension. I beyond highly recommend Mr. Colin McNamee... and can never thank him enough for all that he has done for me.

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.
