Nothing short of exceptional

Thomas was always there to answer any questions that I had and was so helpful throughout my case. He acts with his client’s best interest in mind and works to achieve the best possible resolution. He is also just an all around nice guy and helps to put you at ease throughout the process. I would high...ly recommend him to any family or friends in need of legal representation.

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.
