Would give 0 if I could

Retained Elizabeth for a slam dunk employment case. I was blatantly lied to several times. I was ignored. I was billed for letters & correspondence that was never even drafted. When I was persistent in my request for the documents referred to in my invoices, she responded with insults, rudeness, & sh...e even made the comment “if you can’t afford this invoice, you can’t afford a trial that would cost you $50k if lost.” I paid her $15k for justice, and I received nothing but a hard time.

Property Tax Lawsuit

My property taxes were too high so I hired Elizabeth to challenge them. She has been killing it and doing a great job on my case. I'm always well informed about what's going on and I really appreciate her help.

Relationship: Worked together on matter

"A true courtroom warrior. Elizabeth is fearless, brilliant, and dedicated to kicking ass in the courtroom. As a bonus, she's really funny. If you are a politician and you don't hire Elizabeth for your campaign lawsuit, you are an idiot and don't deserve to be in elected office."

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.
