Very Happy

Attorney Borsheim represented my boyfriend in a drug case. I could tell right away that this guy knows his stuff! His office is very friendly, and Curtis was great at getting back to us when we called. He helped my boyfriend get a great deal and I am so happy that we hired him!

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.
