Trustworthy without the usual legal BS

Was very thorough in her advice regarding my collaborative divorce settlement. Responded in a timely fashion to inquiries and helped me expedite the resolution of my divorce without unnecessarily increasing my legal costs. Am also going to have her change my estate plan now that I am divorced.

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.
