Great new hire!

This guy is a new attorney at the firm I use for all of my business matters and I cannot say enough good things about him. He is personable, intelligent, and he gets the job done right the first time. Above all else, he has been fantastic in how well he communicates with me and my staff about any dev...elopments in the matters he is handling. I will keep requesting that Greg be included in or take the lead on all of my civil litigation matters as long as he is working for this firm. Keep up the good work, Greg!

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.
