Glad I called

Without Dave’s help I would have lost my commercial drivers license for life. He did an outstanding job

Ovi

Mr Mortimer did an outstanding job of questioning the legitimacy of the traffic stop as well as all the facts that the state tried to convey as being true. Dave was very knowledgeable and personable to deal with as well. Job well done!

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.
