Cameron Bedard Review

Words cannot convey the thanks and gratitude I owe Cameron. His level of professionalism, Knowledge, compassion, attention to detail and tactical expertise has no equal. My case was an exceptionally and multi-faceted case. Cameron never skipped a beat, he adapted and overcame every challenge and obst...acle thrown at us. In closing, if you need legal representation, Cameron is the right guy for the job. You would be hard pressed to find a lawyer with more integrity or passion.

Worth a Consult

My son's application to a federal contractor firm was rejected solely due to his listing ADHD as a medical condition for which he was taking medication, on the basis that the position he had applied for required him to be able to focus on detail and that the work was repetitive in nature. Cameron ad...vised him to press the prospective employer for why no accommodations were possible, as their status as a federal contractor required full compliance with the Americans with Disabilities Act and additional federal regulations protecting applicants against discrimination on the basis of physical or behavioral handicap. He further advised against suing the employer as this might be a prolonged action not achieving the near term results (a job offer) being sought. We took his advice. My son had a follow up conversation with their recruiter and received a job offer :-)

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.
