Healthcare Power of Attorney and Living Will

Staten did a Healthcare Power of Attorney and Living Will for me. The process was painless: he asked for my facts (name, dob, etc) and completed the documents for me. He kept a file at his office and gave me a copy for myself and the people I named. I had never done either one of these documents b...efore, but I would go back to him for any updates or additional legal work I may need in the future.

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.
