Wealth of Knowledge

Although Rachel often handles high profile cases, she was willing to provide me with advice on a dog-at-large case. Her advice was right on point and i was able to quickly resolve the case.

Client

In talking to Rachel, she made me feel safe and protected. However, once you contract with her, she is very difficult to get a hold of...nearly impossible. Her assistant strictly screens her calls and does not pass you on to her. Though her legal knowledge is very strong, once in court, she missed... stating some crucial information, as though she wasn't familiar with my case. All in all, the experience was expensive and disappointing; all on top of what I was going through.

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.
