Great Family Law Attorney

Contacted this firm for advice in handling a divorce they suggested I speak with my husband first. They weren’t eager to sign me up and get my money they wanted me to think about and discuss with my spouse. I just went in for a consult but came out feeling better will definitely be contacting them ba...ck soon!

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.
