Dan Ryan Merging Issues

Julie was like a little Pit Bull, she worked very hard at working out an equitable settlement even though the deck was stacked against us. One of the few people that still answers the phone live, she knew how to handle the opposition and made sure we knew where this case was going all along. She wor...ked another case for us prior to this and it settled out with the correct results also. Julie being a part of a legal system that I don't always agree with, has my vote of confidence.

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.
