This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

Criminal Behavior

Paid $7,500 retainer. No clear contract, no itemized billing, and almost no meaningful follow-up—just repeated delays. After months of unreturned calls, I requested a refund and my file. The only replies: “I am out of town. I will have it next week.” Nothing came. Eventually, he withdrew at my req...uest, after months of inaction, communication, or refund. Has not returned my funds or client file despite formal demands. I have filed a State Bar complaint. Look elsewhere for reliable and professional service.

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.
