Excellent Attention to Details

Attorney Sickels was very helpful and comforting during a difficult time. He was very attentive when we had questions, and never made us feel like we weren't his main priority. He was prompt in returning calls or emails, and we appreciated all his time and efforts.

Posted by anonymous | August 31, 2018 | Hired Attorney | Lawsuits & Disputes

Spineless, Time and money waster

After stringing us along for nearly 5 years, tells us a week and a half before trial that he doesn't think we can win and if we did win we wouldn't get any money. It was a total waste of time and money.

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.
