This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

Professional and Attentive

I hired Tanner Duncan to represent me in a DUI case, and I had a very positive experience. From the beginning, he was professional, straightforward about the process and possible outcomes. He consistently communicated clearly and made sure I understood each step of my case. I appreciated how responsi...ve he was and how transparent he remained throughout. I felt well-informed and confident having him represent me, and I would recommend him to anyone needing legal help.

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.
