Personable, Punctual, Professional, Promt, Connected!

Atty. Abagale is very professional, punctual, and closely backed by experienced attorneys in her firm. She filed everything that needed to be filed very quickly! The county issued me an ALS and was trying to tack on extra charges. Atty. Abagale was able to secure for me limited driving privileges whi...le finding procedural traffic stop errors. She was also able to get a favorable hearing date for me. After she attacked the prosecution with motions, the county made a "clerical error" when the state trooper decided to IGNORE the subpoena. The case was resolved on the first and only official hearing because we were prepared to fight the case. I was able to deny a reckless driving offer, plead guilty for speeding (only 6 mph over, and to avoid trial), and get the OVI and ALS dropped. Atty. Abagale and her supporting mentors were able to explain and expound on matters that made my decision-making easy. Thank you, Atty. Abby.

"When I was hiring an attorney for my firm, I received unsolicited recommendations for Abagale Bentley. At the time, she had been working for the Franklin County Public Defender office. Abby is an intelligent quick-learner, and clients love her. I'm glad I hired her, as she is an invaluable member of the Dominy Law Firm."

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.
