mechanics lien

I had Brian work on a mechanics lien for work that we had completed on a commercial property. He was very knowledgeable and walked us through the process. After informing the property owner that we had contacted an attorney we no longer needed to file, but I have every confidence in Brians abilities... and excellent service.

"I regularly participate in several forums, including Avvo, and I must say that Mr. Sleeth contributes some of the most articulate and thought-through answers I have seen on these forums. His commitment to providing general guidance to people outside of his own practice/region demonstrates his commitment to the profession. You would do well to consult with him if you have a legal issue in Missouri."

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.
