"Holly originally taught me about bankruptcy in the early 1990's. Since she also is a CPA, her ability to think about different approaches to financial problems has been a great asset to her bankruptcy practice. She also carries that unique thinking over to her practice in family law, trust/estates and personal injury. I would recommend Holly without hesitation."

"I have known Holly since law school. I have worked on several cases with and against opposing counsel from her firm in her Rogers and Springdale offices over the years. Holly and all the attorneys working with her are always very knowledgable, courtesous, and diligent in the representation of their clients. If we are working togehter on a case I always feel confident that her firm's input will aid me. When we are on opposing sides, I always know I am in for a battle because Holly and the other attorneys working with her will be well prepared and represent their clients to the best of their ability. Holly and her firm are commited to their clients and do a good job of representing them. I have worked with her firm on personal injury and family cases. I have always appreciated their professional and courtesy and would recommend them to anyone looking for an attorney."

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.
