Irresponsible Lack of Communication and Lack of Notification of State Water Board's Need for Legal Affidavits

Mr. Kumli did not respond to our requests or communicate with us for almost two months and delayed in drafting an agreement which we hired him to produce. We were never given an explanation or excuse. He also did not transmit the requests from the state water board for legal affidavits which were ne...cessary for our case to proceed. We were dumbfounded that he had completely dropped the ball and delayed any progress in our legal matter. His office also double billed us on a number of documented occasions.

Replied last September 26, 2014

After more than thirty years in practice a review like this is admittedly distressing, even when there is a substantial difference of opinion or perception between attorney and client. In an effort to avoid any similar complaint, I have taken several additional steps to make certain that I am reachable at all times. I provide all clients with my personal cell phone number, so that I am accessible at all times or on short notice. I am pleased to discuss the status of your case at any time, and I welcome all questions from clients or prospective clients.

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.
