Five Stars! Melanie is amazing

Melanie Foran was absolutely amazing! I felt so confident throughout the whole time I needed her services. She was prompt in responding to me and my needs, beyond professional and handled my case with the utmost sincerity and care. I felt protected and supported throughout the whole time I have neede...d her help. I have recommended my friends to her and will continue to do so. I trusted her with my own family and friends and I can not say enough positive things about her and the practice as a whole. The world needs more lawyers like her in this world!

For the love of Cierra

Melanie was the trustee for my darling niece, Cierra. Melanie cared so much for Cierra and was always there to help with anything we needed. I feel like she was a blessing given to Cierra and myself from God. I appreciate everything she did.

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.
