Posted by Gary Snyder | March 07, 2017 | Hired Attorney | Motorcycle Accident

Very professional and persistent attorney that cares about his clients.

Mr. Graves represented me in a motorcycle accident case where I suffered injuries due to the other driver's fault. The driver's insurance company was impossible to deal with, but Mr. Graves was able to negotiate a fair settlement from the insurance company for me. Without his persistence and professi...onal demeanor with the insurance company adjusters, I would not have been properly compensated for the injuries, medical bills and damages to my motorcycle that I incurred. Mr. Graves was able to negotiate the settlement without a costly and time consuming court case and he did so very quickly while communicating with me throughout the process.

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.
