AMAZING ATTORNEY&BEAUTIFUL PERSON

Sandra, was my attorney in my misguided youth. She represented me from the age of 14 until I was 22. She always worked hard and succeeded at getting me the best possible outcome. She always treated my mother and I with respect and love. If you need a good attorney, look no further, Sandra, is the att...orney for you!

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.
