Very Ethical Attorney

Jerry is a very professional, ethical, and knowledgeable attorney. In my situation, he suggested that I not go forward with a lawsuit, not because I had a poor case, but because it would not be in my best interest in terms of how it would impact my life (reputation, current employment, etc.). He is a... credit to his profession. He also struck me as being very knowledgeable in employment law and defamation/slander. I would highly recommend him to anyone. Jerry also has served as Chairman for his local grade school board and is highly respected in the Mt. Vernon community.

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.
