Efficient beyond words

I contacted and consulted Attorney Filous for an upcoming eviction hearing and the response and commitment I got from her was unlike any other experience I’ve had with any law firm/attorney. Miss Filous acted quickly, applied her extensive knowledge surrounding the details of my case and quickly foun...d a positive resolution for me essentially eliminating several years of stress and financial cost. I am thoroughly impressed with her respect for the community at large, respect for me as an individual and highly recommended Attorney Filous for your 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.
