Garbage

If you are looking for a high priced Clerk, Ron is your Guy! If you are looking for an Attorney, I suggest you go elsewhere!

Posted by anonymous | January 20, 2016 | Hired Attorney | Lawsuits & Disputes

Horrible lawyer

If you want the worst representation ever and wish to waste your money, then he's your "lawyer". Otherwise, stay far,far away!!! He said very preferred comments in front of my young daughter and is VERY condescending. He ignores any attempt to contact him and NEVER returns calls. All he did was simp...ly postpone court dates and that cost $3500!!! Do yourself a favor and find a decent lawyer that will help you and not take advantage of you when you're down.

A Great Attorney

Ron represented me in a complicated divorce and I am more than happy with the results. I would recommend him highly and his location makes him an added bonus.

NEED A GOOD LAWYER RON IS YOUR MAN

This lawyer is excellant. He has been used by me and a couple of people I know, and everyone of them has said the same thing. "Best lawyer I have ever used and hopefully I won't need another one but if I do I would certainly use Ron and nobody else." I share this same feeling and if I ever do nee...d a great attorney who knows his stuff and gets the job done then Ron will certainly be my guy.

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.
