Empathetic and Strong

Rhonda handled a sensitive probate matter for me with such care. She really went above and beyond to make sure my loved one’s wishes were followed. I have friends who have used her for their divorces too and they are so happy with the work she’s done. I highly recommend Rhonda. She really is the best... attorney in the area.

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.
