Posted by Staci | February 28, 2023 | Hired Attorney | Divorce & Separation

Extremely Pleased!

Malachi Daws represented me when I decided to file for divorce. Malachi is a very down-to-earth attorney, that is easy to talk to. He explained everything very well and answered any and all questions. He is extremely organized and very thorough. During mediation, he fought for what was fair for me, a...nd I am extremely grateful. He helped make a typically grueling process, a very quick (and dare I say, easy) process. I recommend the Daws Law Firm, and I highly recommend Malachi Daws.

Respectful and honest!

My sincere thanks to Malachi and Judson for doing a fantastic job in handling my car accident case.This was my first (and hopefully only) experience filing a lawsuit and I was unfamiliar with the entire process and didn't know what to expect. Malachi was very professional, but genuinely empathetic, c...ompetent and most importantly, honest. He did not set false expectations and he was very patient, taking care to explain every step of the process to me so I was able to make informed decisions. Everyone at the Daws Law Firm was professional, courteous, and extremely helpful. They took care of all the stressful phone calls and made all of my appointments to make an already horrific situation as painless as possible! When I had questions, no matter what they were, they responded quickly by telephone or email. For my case, I worked specifically with Attorney Malachi Daws. He was knowledgeable, assertive when necessary and required, and always always patient with my many questions. HE IS AS CARING AND SINCERE AS HE IS A SKILLED PROFESSIONAL. I highly recommend this Firm " They won't disappoint! THANK YOU DAWS LAWFIRM! I APPRECIATE YOUR TIME, EXPERIENCE, AND YOUR TRUSTWORTHY AND INTELLIGENT NATURE!”

Really Pleased

Really pleased! The staff and attorneys were great to work with! They worked fast and handled my family law case and my personal injury case! Call them

Posted by Stacy | May 29, 2018 | Hired Attorney | Nursing Home Abuse and Neglect

Great with Medical Negligence Case

My mother was injured in a nursing home. I was referred to Malachi Daws through another lawyer who doesn't handle medical negligence cases. I met with Mr. Daws and he clearly explained what he expected to happen, what he was going to do, and what I needed to do. Throughout the process, we were called... either by Mr. Daws or someone on his staff and kept informed of what was going on. I like that he was experienced and knew exactly what was going to happen. We have settled the case without putting my mother through a court appearance. I would definitely hire the Daws Law Firm again and will recommend the firm and Malachi Daws to my friends.

Excellent service

Malachi handled the dissolution of a business partnership for me. He has a very calming personality that helped with the stresses of my situation. Very intelligent. I couldn't have asked for a better attorney. Highly recommended.

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.
