Trustworthy

I talked to Rachel about a civil matter involving a mistake that the management team at my Apartment complex made. Their mistake resulted in an irreconcilable neighbor issue and I needed to move out. I consulted with her and asked if she needed to be present at the appointment with my apartment... management staff; she told me if I kept calm and worked with them in a respectable manner I wouldn't need her there. She then told me if they were unwilling to work with me she would be willing to represent me. Rachel kept my anonymity through all of this. Her advice worked; I thought I would have to pay a large termination fee, but I ended up paying nothing out of pocket. During conversation with Rachel, I recall discussing an issue and she could divulge a related precedent. She is very knowledgeable, intelligent, and well mannered. She could have told me I needed her at the appointment (over two hours of pay) instead she gave me good advice. I would highly recommend Rachel.

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.
