Amazing

Debt collectors ruined my credit and I could not lease an apartment. Mr. Zimmer took care of everything, got my credit cleaned up, and even got me reimbursed for the hotel I had to stay at while waiting for an apartment. He is terrific.

Posted by Maya | March 09, 2020 | Hired Attorney | Lawsuits & Disputes

Unfortunate

In 2016 I hired Mr Zimmer to file a lawsuit for me. After four years I found out through the Courts that he never filed my case. We had a contract and I have 77 emails between him and I.

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.
