Recomendación de Abogado y Asistente Legal

Estoy muy satisfecha con el trabajo del abogado Brian Plotts y su asistente Amy Martinez. Ellos me representaron en los trámites para mi residencia y me sentí muy segura dejando que el abogado Brian y Amy llevaran mi caso. Ellos siempre contestaron todas mis peguntas. Cuando ellos recibían una cart...a de la oficina de USCIS en referencia a mi caso, Amy siempre me llamaba por teléfono para avisarme y explicarme detalladamente. Ellos siempre hicieron todo a tiempo y me prepararon muy bien para mi entrevista. El día de mi entrevista en la oficina de USCIS el abogado Brian me acompañó y estuvo a mi lado y mi residencia fue aprobada inmediatamente y mi pasaporte fue sellado cómo residente. Ahora ya viendo los resultados y el profesionalismo, yo como un cliente satisfecho puedo decir qué yo recomiendo a el abogado Brian Plotts y a su asistente Amy Martinez.

Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

"I endorse this lawyer. Brian is conscientious, very intelligent, and an all around good guy. Always eager to help brainstorm a problem case, and possessive of that rare ability to show he knows what he's talking about without being condescending or pedantic, which puts his listener at ease, whether a fellow attorney or client. Additionally, Brian is very well-travelled, and has truly been affected by his experiences. Also, and unfortunately quite rare in his practice area, Brian possesses a keen appreciation for professional ethics, and is always straightforward with others, again whether fellow lawyers or clients. Anyone who knows Brian is fortunate to do so."

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.
