A serious lawyer for serious situations

AS a fellow attorney, I have known Bruce Skaug for over 25 years. He has represented hundreds of injured persons, and treats everyone with dignity, diligence and a very high level of competence and success. I regularly refer to him because I know my friends and contacts will be treated well.

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.
