"Kyle" Vance

This fine man represented me in a what I considered a very scary situation and humbling. I am a CHL carrier and had a circumstance needing Kyle's firm "Musick and Musick Law Offices to answer a referral. They put Kyle with me and his integrity shined through. The proceedings went exactly as he advise...d me and I was thankful to him for what must have been a not so rare situation these days. His assertiveness was not bravado it was honest and proved the system works if given the chance. I will always recommend him in the future!

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.
