I refer this lawyer to everyone with family issue or real estate. He is worth more than 5 stars

Posted by Penny | June 19, 2019 | Hired Attorney | Child Support

Best of the best!!

We were in dire need of representation for a child support case that was four hours away from home in a very small town. I spent hours on the phone trying to find a attorney to represent my husband. We couldn't find an attorney near the small town that would take his case that we could afford, or one... willing to work with us on payments. My husband called Mr. Little and from day one we knew he was God sent to be our attorney. He was willing to work with us, and treated us with complete respect. He worked so hard to make sure we had a fair court hearing. He made all the phone calls, gathered all the documentation needed for the court case. Mr. Little did an amazing job for us, and the day went our way. If you need a compassionate, caring, hardworking, dedicated professional do not look any where else.

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.
