Mrs Holly and Mr. Ted Smith were professional and patient in preparing my case for social security. Both of them made me feel comfortable and wouldnt of taken my case if they didnt think that i had a chance of receiving my benefit. I want to thank you both and keeping me updated with my case through...out the process.. your names will be first to be referred to if anyone is looking for a lawyer. Thank you again for representing me

Newly Divorced

My divorce came with many challenges over the course of 3 years. My attorney was my rock. She and the firm made it affordable for me to manage. Something I know I wasn't going to find any where else. There wasn't much I had to handle on my own. If it wasn't for the firm I don't know that I would've b...een able to keep my boys. My divorce was finalized last week and I thank my lucky stars. My ex and I were able to come to a compromise, my children are happy and where they belong.

I went to Mr. Smith after leaving Brett Pritchard I was having an awful experience with a divorce until I found Mr. Smith and Melaine they truly made the divorce a more manageable time and ensured all my needs were met. I highly recommend them

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.
