Life Changing

I hired Ms. Brinkerhoff upon with Mr. Deig’s recommendation. I will forget be grateful for his insight. Ms. Brinkerhoff took on my case after 7 months of ineffective representation. With another firm. I met with her once as an introduction and once for mediation preparation that had been previously... scheduled. Ms. Brinkerhoff was completely familiarized with the evidence in a short period of time. She listened to what was important for me and my child and aggressively acted in our best interest. We walked out of mediation with all that was important to us. We have a fresh, healthy safe start at life. My child nor I will not have to endure a lifetime of emotional, mental and physical abuse because she listened and she fought for us. Thank you Ms. Brinkerhoff and thank you Steven Deig for the recommendation.

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.
