Smart fantastic lawyer

Ms. Buchman is talented, smart and a phenomenal attorney. She is committed and dedicated to her clients. She is aggressive when necessary but above all handles herself in court and with opposing counsel with eloquence and grace. She is completely devoted to her practice and her clients. Ms. Buc...hman is honest and tells you the truth in regards to the family law process. She truly cares about her clients and advocates for the best interest of her client and their children. I owe Melissa all the gratitude in the world for her perseverance as my lawyer in my custody matter. I would recommend Melissa Buchman to anyone needing a lawyer in a family law matter, my personal custody matter has been high conflict, Melissa has proven to be a skilled negotiator and truly navigates my high conflict case with confidence and knowledge of the law. She is very bright and is by far the one of the greatest people I have ever come to know. She has been the saving grace in what has been a trying and terrible time in my life. No one wants to be in a position where they need a family law lawyer, but if you are then Melissa is by far the best choice.

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.
