Worst lawyer in History

This lawyer has no respect for any ethic or moral principal, if you want to lose your case hire him! you are better off going to someone else , look at google reviews!

Excellent lawyer

I consulted Mr. Valley after I was arrested. He throughly reviewed the facts of my case, and pressed the prosecution to uncover the evidence they had. He was absolutely fantastic after a multi-year battle with the courts. He got the case dismissed after a long fight, and we are now working towards ex...pungement. I cannot thank him enough nor can I recommend him enough. I feel like I legitimately have a friend in counsel for life & while I hope I never have to use his services in the future regarding criminal matters, I will absolutely recommend him to anyone. Thank you for all you do.

Thanksgiving WIN

An amazing attorney, I was facing a theft of service charge, I had been fighting my case for over a year I'm a marine vet and through Mr valley's knowledge and professionalism he destroyed the prosecution, it to the jury 10 minutes to return a not guilty verdict only becuase Mr valley was flawless in... the courtroom. Thank you sir for giving me my life back you truly are a blessing. If this man isnt in your corner he should be.

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.
