My Legal Guardian Angel

I have worked with Mr. Davern and his office on several issues since a workers compensation injury in 1991. The company administering the workers comp case pulled out all the stops to be as nasty as possible to me. All along the way Mr. Davern did what ever was necessary to minimize the stress of the... experience for me. At all times I felt educated and informed about the process. And he always told me there were never any "dumb" questions. Since then his office handled some tax issues for my business and recently Dr. Davern has again come to my rescue in a personal injury case. When I mention who my attorney is at Doctors offices and Clinics I very often hear " oh we have heard good things about him". I'm sure they have! I'm 61 years old, and my Father, of course long past, always said to find yourself a good lawyer who you feel right around and whose advise you can trust. I have to say with all the negatives of a workers comp claim, Mr. Davern is the shining bright star I am so grateful to have entered my life all those years ago. Thank you for brightening all those dark days and reassuring me you would help me find a solution. You are just the best!

Relationship: Worked together on matter

"I have known and admired Tom Davern for forty years, ever since I started practicing in 1976. His personal integrity and his continuing care and concern are outstanding. I refer nearly all of my personal injury clients to him - and they have been uniformly appreciative of his work. In fact, I have gotten flowers and candy from some of them, just to thank me for sending them to him! The man is dedicated, hard working, and gets outstanding results. You will not find any better. No one does Personal Injury and Workers Compensation any better."

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.
