Best attorney in Columbus

Incredible attorney. Chelsea was such a breath of fresh air while going through my divorce. She was so precise and clear, never leaving me in the dark. I was very impressed by her responsiveness and how fast she would get things done. Chelsea is very knowledgable and would consistently put me at ease.... She has a great personality to match. Hiring Chelsea was by far one of the best and smartest decisions I made going through the divorce process. Couldn't be happier.

Relationship: Other

"I've been reviewing answers by Ms. Long on this site and in the areas of domestic relations, I have absolutely no problem endorsing her as an attorney in the area of custody, divorce and related areas. The one thing I find refreshing is in her answers, she doesn't just suggest to see an attorney like so many do here. Chelsea actually gives an answer to a question which should point the asker in the right direction."

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.
