Small Business Satisfied Client

Andrew Stavros has assisted me on multiple occassions regarding non-compete and confidentiality agreements. Very efficient, very effective.

Contract Employment, Ownership Shares and Non-Compete Agreements

I found Mr. Stavros through an internet search. I met him and other employment lawyers when I had run into a situation with ownership shares offered at work. He was by far the most knowledgable in the subject, so I chose to work with him. Since then, I have hired Mr. Stavros for Contract Employmen...t, Ownership Shares and Non-Compete agreements. Each time, he has shown his breadth of knowledge on these subjects. He was able to point out several line items to change that I clearly would have missed or misunderstood. He had an abundance of experiences he shared with me to help me gauge the severity of each point or change he was trying to make. He also sat down with myself, my employer and their lawyer to discuss and finalize the process of negotiation. He was very professional, organized, focused and everyone left happy. Most importantly, I left protected. Mr. Stavros normally responded to my emails or phone calls the same day, or the next day at the latest. I appreciated his commitment knowing that the emails I got very late at night were the result of him being in court all day. His billing was clear and predictable. His invoices were descriptive. I knew exactly what I was being billed for. I highly recommend Mr. Stavros for any type of employment legal matters or counsel.

An Excellent Attorney

Mr. Stavros has been our attorney for over a decade. We have found his services to be invaluable for our business and personal matters. From our experience, he has been extremely valuable for transactional law, negotiations, and dispute resolution in matters relating to health care and business. H...e has represented us with vigor and candor and we have always been able to count on him for a rapid response and well reasoned advice . Importantly, he has faced formidable opposing counsel from large firms and has valiantly advocated and returned fair and reasonable results for us. We have been fortunate to avoid litigation, and attribute this to his legal skill. For example, he has saved us great economic expense and has salvaged deals that were on the brink of collapse. Going forward, we anticipate using Mr. Stavros for years to come to help us navigate the legal environment. In summary, he is competent, talented, and astute in legal and corporate matters.

Horrible Experience

Working with Michele Anderson. at first this firm was okay. as we continued through out the process, everything changed i don't think Michele Anderson or Austin is as knowledgeable as i thought they were. i can not recommend this firm for any employment or contracts matters. my experience here wasn't... very good at all. they used a bullying tactic where they told me to Settle or we are gonna withdraw. i refused to settle and i was asking question about laws and what the statues are and they withdraw and left me hanging. also i want to note they are afraid of going to trials. most the evidence was in my favor and she was afraid to go trial, she mention majority cases we settle. also she cant find one of my evidence and she is very un-organized.

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.
