Great Family Law Attorney!

I was referred to Mr. Samuel by a friend after discussing the short-comings of my previous attorney. Hiring Mr. Samuel was the best choice I could have made. He is very knowledgeable about family law. He has helped guide me through each step of the way, and has responded to any of my questions as soo...n as possible. Mr. Samuel has been very compassionate and has treated me like a person, and not just another paycheck. I would definitely recommend Mr. Samuel if you are looking for a family law attorney who will fight for you and keep your child's best interest in mind.

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.
