Excellent Lawyer!

When I realized that I was getting divorced, I was full of fear and uncertainty. After my initial consultation with Randy, I felt much calmer about the whole process. Randy did an excellent job of advocating for me. The outcome of my divorce was very favorable. He really knows what he is doing. ...I very much appreciate his hard work, and would recommend him to anyone!

Excellent Lawyer, Highly Recommended

From my first consultation with Randy, I found him to be very knowledgeable, caring, and reassuring. No matter how terrible my situation seemed, Randy knew the best way to deal with it based on experience and facts. I always felt better after speaking with with him via phone, email, or in person. ...Randy was always professional and respectful with me, and even with my ex-husband and his lawyer. I have recommended Randy multiple times to friends, family, and friends-of-friends. I have complete confidence that they will all receive the same professional, knowledgeable, and caring demeanor that was so helpful for me.

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.
