This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

Mr. Denton

Professional legal service. My father was a lawyer, one of the few "good" ones, and I would put Mr Denton into that same group. Trustworthy, experienced, honest, and knowledgeable of the law. If you are looking for a quality lawyer, those are the qualities that you are looking for. I would refer Me D...enton to anyone that was in need a legal representation.

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.
