Excellent Job with Adoption

We used Renee for an intra-family adoption case and were very pleased. She did her research into the laws and kept in close contact with the court throughout the process. She took her time with us to answer all of our questions. With other lawyers I've felt like they cared about me in proportion t...o the amount of money I'd make them, but Renee cared about us and the best interest of our family. That was very important to me. We were comfortable and informed in every step of the process. Even with a surprise on the date of our court appearance that made us nervous, Renee remained calm and professional. She took good care of our family.

Finally!!!

After 6 years of going to court with what felt like inadequate representation, we hired, Renee. I can not begin to tell you how amazing it has felt to have someone leave no stone un-turned and fight to make sure that the legal process is being followed. She has made a once bleak situation feel mana...geable. And her Paralegal, Lauren - - - AMAZING. She listens and does all that she can to ensure that there are timely responses and that we are up-to-date on all of the events. Thank you sincerely to you both!

My Divorce Attorney

I was more than happy with my results from my divorce attorney. Renee consulted with me as needed and ALWAYS made time for me. She was thorough and made me feel very comfortable with a process that I knew little about. I have since recommended Renee to my closest friends who needed legal help.

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.
