This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

Would recommend

I hired Tony about 10 years ago to represent me in a case that I was named in. Tony did a great job and I was happy with his work on my case. The whole experience was uncharted waters for me and I was lost and scared and did not understand the process. Tony communicated well with me and explained ...every step in detail which helped ease my mind. He was honest and upfront with me. I felt that Tony was on my side and was genuinely concerned about me and my family. The relationship did not feel transactional and I appreciate that. After my case was over I had several residual issues with restitution and Tony stepped in and interceded for me at no additional cost. Tony is a good attorney with a good heart and I would absolutely recommend him.

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.
