Great Lawyer.

I Hired KK&L_C,LTD. My case was assigned to Amina, I can't be more happy , She was clear and concise at every interview ,explaining to me what to expect and the process and step we were taking, helping me to understand and follow my case at every turn. On time at every hearing, we won my case and at ...the end She was as happy as me. Thanks Amina.

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.
