Fantastic Attorney

Michael Cafferty took on my case after several attorneys told me I could never win. He pursued my case with gusto and a great deal of skill and legal strategy. Ultimately, Mr. Cafferty won my case and changed my life for the better. I cannot thank him enough.

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?

  • 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.
