This review is from a potential client who consulted with this attorney.

Firm's name - Rule of Professional Conduct

Intending to establish my own private practice, I was debating as to whether I could use the term "law firm" in the company's name based on my own situation. Ms. Weissman Montgomery responded promptly and directed me to the exact rules to obtain the correct answer.

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.
