SEMPER FI, MY GOOD AND FAITHFUL FRIEND!

We went to Jamie on a friends' recommendation back in 2007 when we needed to put a living trust together to protect our resources in the event of either of our deaths, which would be untimely no matter when they happened. He walked us through the entire process without a hiccup in it and even helped... me put together a partnership and buy-sell agreement for my business. During that process he consistently worked for my best interests, even when he had to go at odds with my accountant and estate planners. Further, I have recommended him to others several times since and all have reported excellent results, especially those who had an immediate need from an unforeseen death for which the family had no preparations in place. You couldn't find a more competent, knowledgeable or compassionate attorney.

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.
