Fantastic Attorney

I consulted with several attorneys before knowing Ed was the right attorney for me. Ed and his entire staff handled every portion of my divorce with the respect, understanding, and expert professional service. I would highly recommend Ed to anyone who has family law issues, my circumstance were defin...itely out of the normal circumstance being out of state and with custodial issues. Ed and Jessica went the extra mile to make sure every detail was examined and handled for my best interests.

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.

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.
