Relationship: Worked together on matter

"I could not recommend a lawyer more highly than I do Kirsten. She quickly gets to the key issues and knows how to present them in the best possible fashion. Her analysis of the issues is extremely thorough and at the same time understandable to non-experts. She writes masterfully and argues with authority. She is superb."

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.
