Worst lawyer I’ve Hired

Worst attorney I’ve experienced. He left my case unresolved. He didn’t show up to the court when he said he’d represent me, which resulted in default. He wrote rude emails to me later on. Speaking of emails, I had to follow up constantly, because I wouldn’t hear from him for weeks. He participates in... a prepaid legal insurance plan to get new business, and now I see why — he would never have me as a repeat customer.

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.
