I worked for State Farm Insurance Company and, as such, handled claims, defended their interests in court and investigated insurance fraud.

Scamming lawyers

I heard this law firm to help me collect some money from person that owe me money. They took my money. They was filed paperwork and everything on my behalf. They have not returned my phone calls, emails or text messages. I feel like they are the ones to scan me out of my money even more You would be ...better off hiring a BYU lost student than use these guys.

Responded and had my issue in process within 1 day

I had a problem with the installation of some cabinets )sub par and not completed). After working with a different attorney for over a month with no results, I gave up and called Chris Dexter. Chris was able to get the cabinet installer agreeing to fix my cabinets in LESS THAN 1 DAY! Chris knows... what he is doing and is able to get results. He is an excellent advocate and I will definitely hire him again when I have legal needs

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.
