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

Great attorney

I wasn’t actually a consultant but on a case where she was hired by the other party. She is really patient , fair and knowledgeable. She’s understanding thorough and an overall great spirited woman. I would recommend her.

Mrs

Contacted Darlene about some urgent estate matters. She was very professional, understanding and helpful. Her work is thorough and precise. Takes the time to explain to you. Would hire again. Highly recommend

I spoke with Darlene briefly regarding the type of legal assistant that I needed. Although she was unable to assist me, she gave me names and numbers of lawyers that could.

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.
