This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

Opposing Counsel

Corey is a true professional. I was opposing counsel on a recent case. He I had the ability to advocate 110% for his client while being a true professional. His knowledge of the law is equally impressive.

Excellent legal resource and wealth of knowledge

I consulted Corey and I expect to hire him. He knows his specialty well and he’s been very generous with time. I had a difficult project and he helped me understand how to proceed.

Honest and Candid Attorney

Corey provided us honest and candid advice and consultation. Told us what we needed to hear instead of what we wanted to hear. I would definitely turn to Corey again for my future legal needs.

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.
