The Ideal Lawyer

What an outstanding lawyer. Extremely knowledgeable, professional, and familiar with the process for my out of state DUI. He is efficient and even courteous enough to remind me of time zone difference when needing to meet on Zoom. He used his experience to get the best possible outcome for me. I woul...d 100% recommend.

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.
