Colin Bell

It is my absolute pleasure to endorse Colin Bell. His knowledge and experience in the law was far above and beyond all my expectations. I hired Colin for a very difficult family matter that required a supperior skill set, dogged determined, and extreme professionalism, all traits that Colin ...Bell has mastered. He represents me and redeemed my reputation in a way that I will always be indebted to him for. Throughout the whole process he explained what was going on, presented me with my options and answered my questions in a way that was clear to me. I never felt lost or behind in anyway. It is my privilege to wholeheartedly recommend Colin Bell.

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.
