This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

Quick, knowledgeable, and responsive

Austin Ferris was very easy to work with. He took all the information he required from me, in a short phone call, and handled it all himself afterwards. He was not expensive and took care of handling the whole situation without me being present for a court date. He remained very professional througho...ut the whole experience. I would hire him again.

Saved me a lot of money and stress dealing with court, even quickly acted to correct an issue a week after. Would hire aging without a second thought

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.
