Posted by Terri | January 28, 2019

A man of integrity and knowledge

I have had several conversations with Mr. Davis and each time have been impressed with his knowledge base, his kindness and his flexibility. Thus far I've only needed to consult, and have found him to be quite fair and generous in terms of his time, his fees, his expertise and his advice. He made s...tressful situation much easier-- If I ever need to hire him for a full case I would not hesitate to do so. Thanks for all your help, Matt. TS, St. Louis

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.
