Great Lawyer

Nina defended me in a criminal case and explained everything to me thoroughly and always made time for me as a client.

Posted by Katy | November 29, 2018 | Hired Attorney | Business

extremely satisfied customer

Nina was quick in getting the legal work done that I needed to start my business. She had the paperwork sent off the same day. Her prices were fair, and what could have been a very daunting process for me as a new business owner was made quick and seamless with Nina's service. I could also tell sh...e really cared about me as a person and was excited for my endeavors.

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.
