Quickness

He was courteous and quick to work. He helped me get my first case 100% dismissed. I had him suggested to me by a friend. He is an affordable hire that gives results. I could not have asked for better.

Excellent

Cory represented me for my divorce proceedings. He handled the case exactly the way I wanted it to go. He advised me of my rights, and I am happy with the settlement of divorce that he negotiated. I never had to step into the courtroom. Thank you Cory.

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.
