best attorneys around

we were in a small accident in 2014. my company and I were sued for over $3millon for a finder bender. 3 years later we go to court and jury finds for my company and myself. Melissa and here assistant Arva work late at night, skipping lunch during trial, and kept my hopes up. if you need a attorney ...you could find no better. she truly believes in here clients needs.

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.
