Awesome attorney!

I was recommended Judy as an attorney for my divorce by a friend and it was the best recommendation I've ever gotten. Judy is very knowledgeable, reliable and trustworthy. She kept me informed every step of the way. I would highly recommend her expertise to anyone in need of a family law attorney.

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.
