Ethical Former Judge Who is an Expert in Family Law

Ethical and Atty. are terms that usually don't go together. However, Beth is the exception. She is truly driven by her passion for justice, not money alone. Her knowledge of the system is exceptional because she is a former District Judge. This, combined with her passion and dedication, offers any cl...ient the best representation in Family Law. Whether you are going through a divorce, custody battle, or need an advocate to assist you in any matter relating to family law, Beth is absolutely the best choice. I was in such a complicated divorce and custody battle, and had a previous attorney who really dropped the ball. Beth got me on track so quickly, and kept me updated every step of the way. I normally don't take the time to write reviews, but I felt compelled to do so. These matters are so complicated and emotional, and I want people to know Beth truly cares, and Will do whatever is necessary for her clients to ensure the best possible outcome. I cannot say enough good things about 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.
