Victoria E Ames

I was very impressed with Victoria and the knowlege she had. She went the extra mile in talking to my former husband in another state about the special needs trust we would need for our son so he would understand it. Victoria told me everything we would need to do -- and in what order we would do... it and how long it would take to accomplish it. She read some former work I had had done and explained everything in detail to me. I had forgotten some of it and she went over it so I knew she knew the law. That was important to me. She was responsive to the hard time I was going through at this time-- I would trust her with any problem or concern I was having.

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.
