Hired an attorney received a trusted friend

Rick earned my trust (not an easy feat) as well as guided and advised my family to a fantastic outcome. His honesty, willingness to listen and adapt along with a wealth of knowledge have been a gift to us for many years. I cannot thank him or recommend him highly enough.

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.
