Good attorney

I hired miss Reed for my custody battle. She is a very sweet lady and knows her job but I felt rushed. My intire parenting agreement that she had me sign has so many loop holes that insted of my x and I working things out it made more conflict between us. So 25,000 later I'm still in court every mont...h since then trying to fix the mistakes that sould have never been there.

Relationship: Worked together on matter

"I have worked with Liz on a variety of cases from divorces to prenups and highly recommend her services. Liz is a skilled litigator who is well-respected in the courtroom. She always goes above and beyond for her clients and genuinely cares about the outcome. Family law is an incredibly challenging industry and one of the things that I admire most about Liz is her ability to help people find peace and hope in rebuilding their future. She is a fierce advocate and compassionate partner. Her clients are lucky to have her in their corner."

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.
