This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

Stucco law suit

The stucco law suit was well prepared for before the original trial. The actual trial was well presented and I, among many, received a fair monetary award. The verdict was appealed up to the state Supreme Court. While unaware of how that process was conducted, the court upheld the original verdic...ts and compensations. This tells me Mr Springmeyer's efforts were effective.

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.
