Top notch lawyer

Competent, knowledgeable, assertive, indefatigable, invested in client and compassionate. Very professional demeanor and appearance. Not easily intimidated. My case was handled extraordinarily well by her.

Big disappointment

Completely disappointed in her poor representation. Complete waste of money and time.

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.
