Extremely satisfied client!!

Elizabeth was referred to me by another attorney that doesn't handle my type of case. I interviewed four other attorneys and chose Elizabeth based on her responses during our interview and her professionalism. From the day I hired her she was always quick to reply to my questions on the phone as well... as email, the other employees in the office were also great! My divorce was finalized in a timely matter and I ended up being 100% satisfied with the outcome. Elizabeth offers great advice and has excellent negotiation skills that I believe helped me achieve the outcome I desired. Thank you Elizabeth and team!

Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

"Elizabeth and I have opposed each other numerous times over the years in various family law cases. She is smart, aggressive and a handful to deal with as opposing counsel - which is what makes her so good at what she does and exactly what you want on your side in family court. As much as it pains me to put all this in writing for public consumption, those are the simple facts!"

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.
