Outstanding Attorney-got a large settlement

We were involved in an auto accident in St. Louis County. This was a rear-impact accident, and we both suffered from soft tissue injuries to our neck and back. We had to sue the other driver, and Jerry was able to settle for the policy limits for my husband and obtained $20,000 for myself.

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.
