Fast, knowledgeable and ALWAYS professional.

After a long separation - it was time to go through the divorce proceedings with my uncontested divorce. I had a relatively simple case as my ex and I had agreed to most of the terms ahead of time and already had an idea of how we wanted to proceed. Marshall was able to work with me and explain all... the pros and cons of my decisions and also brought up a lot that I had no thought about before. It was more tricky when it comes to child shared custody than I thought - especially around things like taxes to which Marshall was very knowledgeable about. Throughout the process he was always professional and prompt and we were able to complete the divorce quickly and without issue.

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.
