Highly recommend!

I had a divorce settlement agreement that seemed like it would go smoothly from start to finish. That wasn't the case because disagreements developed between me and my former spouse. Ms. White was right there making sure everything was done fairly and thoroughly. She was always professional, patie...nt, and informed. Furthermore, she was a true defender with sound advice. At the end, we were able to come to a fair and favorable agreement in my divorce. It was such a relief to have Ms. White's representation at this difficult time in my life! I highly recommend her!

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.
