Excellent Family Law Attorney

Mrs. Ruth Vernier is the best attorney in the business. She is compassionate, knowledgeable, and assertive. Last year, I was facing financial ruin and personal difficulties in my marriage. Vernier and Associates stepped in to handle my case with great care and expertise. They zealously represented my... children and me. Through Mrs. Vernier's expert legal assistance and guidance, my children and I now have a much brighter future.

Greatness

Mrs. Ruth and her team have been nothing less then a blessing. When I originally started my custody battle I hired another attorney which did absolutely nothing for me. Mrs. Ruth and her team then stepped in and took charge! The patience and dedication I have seen is amazing! I am so great full and l...ooking forward to the final hearing to have this case settled.

She is very empathetic and supportive of our needs. She and her staff worked hard to get everything resolved, and was very supportive in achieving a positive resolution for us.

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.
