Posted by Sheila | May 25, 2015 | Child Custody

Parental Alienation

Wally took on my case even though many other attorneys declined to due to its complexity. I am forever grateful of the services he provided, because without his help, I wouldn't have been reunited with our daughters. Through the years, he has consistently shown himself to be a man of high integrity, ...honesty, and loyalty. He is very dedicated to his clients and has clearly demonstrated that he has their best interest at heart and that he genuinely cares. Furthermore, he has always responded to and filed necessary documents in a timely fashion, has kept me informed of strategies and communications, and has patiently answered any questions I had. He is very professional, skilled, and knowledgeable in his field. Finally, with that said, it is through his outstanding character and expertise that Wally has earned my complete trust. I highly recommend him.

Divorce

Extremely prompt when completing paperwork and replying to any email. I trust his judgement and he was always straightforward with me. Told me what was worth arguing about and what wasn't worth spending the money to argue about. Getting divorced was more expensive than I wanted it to be, but I'm g...lad I had competent representation, which probably saved me money in the long run. Now that the divorce is complete, I appreciate his services even more.

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.
