Helped Settle Family Probate Challenges

David and his staff were very professional and courteous. I live in North Carolina and needed specific assistance in Oklahoma and he and his staff were just the ones! Their fees were very reasonable and worth every penny. They kept me informed on how our issues were coming along the entire time. ...I now have my Oklahoma lawyer! Thanks, David and Dena

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.
