Great estate planner

Maureen did our estate planning.She knows her stuff and answers all questions. Very pleasant to work with. We highly recommend her.

Posted by Vanessa | June 16, 2013

Not trustworthy at all

I contacted Ms Grzeskiewicz via phone, based on recommendation by a peer of hers. She was very informative and generous with her time on the phone. She asked that I bring some papers to her office for her to look over. After several weeks of calls and messages left on her voicemail, Ms. Grzeskiewicz... has never returned a phone call or my personal documents that I have asked to have rerturned. I can understrand if my case wasn't of interest to her, but for her to ignore my request to have my personal documents returned to me, which I have every right to have, is completely disloyal of her. I still need legal assistance but this experience has left me uneasy about trusting any attorney at this time.

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.
