Great lawyer. Got the job done and more!

I came into Mr. Ata's office on the referral of a friend. I did not know what to expect. I was in some personal trouble and did not have any previous experiences with the law. Mr. Ata assured me that a case brought against me by someone who I trusted did not have much legal ground, and in fact,... this person was at fault! Not only did Mr. Ata help defend myself successfully, we win a small amount of damages in return! I can't thank Mr. Ata enough! He wanted to know all the details and seemed like a straight-talker. He helped me out in a tough situation!

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.
