Relationship: Worked together on matter

"I endorse this lawyer. Judge Wasiliewski served for my litigation team as an expert witness regarding criminal procedure and the standard of care of a criminal defense lawyer. He was knowledgeable on the law, insightful on identifying issues, attentive and diligent to researching open questions, and responsive to phone calls and emails. Moreover, he gave us honest and candid assessments which allowed us to proceed knowledgeably and with credibility. I have never worked with a better expert in any field."

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.
