Posted by Hiba | January 30, 2020 | Hired Attorney | Divorce & Separation

Highly Recommend !!!

During this very difficult time in my life, I knew my divorce was being handled properly and I was in good hands with Cody Vidrine as my attorney. Cody not only provided legal support; he also provided emotional support that helped me through the entire divorce process. His communications and follow...-ups were precise, on time, and efficient. I am very thankful to have Cody as my attorney.

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.
