This woman saved my life

I have heard other lawyers say they would not want to be against her in court, she knows her stuff, answers and returns phone calls promptly, I have used her on real estate, bankruptcy (she got me out of it), commercial lease litigation, and elder law....she is around my age I hope I die first cause... I want to keep using her!!!!!!!!she has saved me thousands of dollars (no I am not a friend or relative writing this, she is my lawyer and I have used her at least 7 years)

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.
