Amazing Attorney

I had a great experience with the Medlin Law Firm , Matt Peacock was my attorney, he was amazing super nice, explained the process of my case and worked diligently to have it dismissed. I have absolutely no complaints. I will definitely recommend him 100%. I will definitely use them again if the need... should arise as I am very thankful to Mr. Peacock and his team.

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.
