Estate planning

I found Michael Lee to be a great help with setting up the legal documents for my will, trust and health care directive. He answered all of my questions until everything was clear to me and was fine with my preference to communicate via email. We met only three times in person and all of my papers we...re completed in a timely fashion. I have no complaints and would hire him again if I needed legal assistance that he could help me with in the future.

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.
