Bullseye! Got everything!!!!! And then some...

I never in a zillion years would bet that divorce would be in the path of my life. I thought she was sweet,,nurturing to my children,and at the VERY least a reliable woman to me and my NEEDS. Well, she must ha e got a bug from Ferndale or some other sub-germ hosting succulent, but William IS THE SnI...T!!! Bottom line - I have been effing around since my wedding . I came into a LOT of money as my patented idea took off (another thanks to Bill), and my (ex) c wife claimed as much as her suburban Michigan bacon-infused fingers could grab. Mr. Berlin quickly and nearly forcefully (if I didn't know another my better) had the judge render and enforce a judgement in my favor and under my stipulations

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.
