Posted by Matthew | November 22, 2013 | Child Custody

Best lawyer I've worked with, ever.

Came in at the 11th hour to represent me in my child custody case, even though I live in another state. He keeps me informed through emails and phone calls. He represents me in all hearings and other proceedings, despite my inability to be there personally. He listens to my wants and concerns and ...provides valuable opinions. I am very fortunate to have found him to represent me.

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.
