One of the very best!

My first contact with Sharon was when I opened Blue Byte Software, the US operation of an international software company, based in Austin Texas. I was in need of a Labor and Employment attorney that could assist me with personnel, policies and recordkeeping for my company. Sharon’s command of labor l...aws helped me and my company tremendously. She quickly and efficiently helped to help build systems that protected our software company. Her expertise educated me in preparing for personnel issues as well. I retained Sharon throughout our company’s existence in Austin. Her voice and knowledge was invaluable. Sharon continued to demonstrate exceptional skills while we worked together for several years. She is personable, professional, knowledgeable and very efficient. Sharon is a rare person to find/have as part of, or in addition to, any team. Mark

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.
