Respectful

Courtney is a very realistic human - she does not sugar coat anything. Which, in most cases, is awesome and I am thankful for that. I knew my case would be tough and we had no idea what the outcome would be and she made sure I knew that. Courtney and my ex’s lawyer negotiated so we didn’t even have t...o have a hearing in front of the judge. We all chose what was best for my daughter and now I get to move my daughter out of state! She is very cut / dry but she knows what she is doing and she does it well.

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.
