My Attorney

Back in 2016 I was totally stressed about my legal situation and did not know where to turn. I contacted Ms. Blackman and she counseled me and agreed to represent me which was the best day of my life. She has always been there, knowing what to do and when to do it. She assisted me with the EEOC cla...im, the filing of the federal lawsuit and has been there for me every step of the way. I owe her oh so much.

First Class Lawyer

I would like to start by saying your work and dedication to my case is first class. I want to say thank you for helping me. I am in awe by your writing skills, communication skills and courage at the court hearing. I cannot thank you enough for your services that you rendered on my behalf. The unive...rse have a way of connecting the right people together. I am so grateful in having you by my side. I can say before hearing any results I feel like a winner. Thanks again for your knowledge, legal advice, time and efforts.

"I endorse this lawyer. I've worked with Natalie for a number of years. She is a very hard worker, and a strong and compassionate advocate. She takes pride in her work and law practice. She is able and willing to put in the time to properly represent her clients. Natalie will not be "pushed around" by the government or big business. She stands up and fights for her clients. Her study and application of the law is meticulous. I consider Natalie to be one of the most effective and knowledgeable advocates in the United States. She pays attention to the details of her cases. Most important, she listens to and works to understand her clients. I highly recommend her."

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.
