This review is from a potential client who consulted with this attorney.

Do not consider her

God awful human being. Horrible manner wouldn’t wish to recommend for my worst enemy. Called a Saint Bernard an aggressive dog. Wouldn’t listen to anything a person would say. She is a text book narcissist.

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.
