Posted by Ashley | September 08, 2015 | Criminal Defense

Awesome Lawyer!!

My name is Ashley and I recently hade some legally trouble where I was arrested due to a false report another person placed on me. I have been to the Harris County jail before and I know how the justice systems works when it comes to fighting for your innocents. I was angry and highly upset because I... was unlawfully placed under arrest for something I honestly did not do. When I went to court for the first time, I was afraid I would get a CA lawyer and the outcome of my case and my story would not be justified. Thank God Attorney Plaut was appointed to me and he honestly did exactly what he expressed to me what he would be doing concerning my case. The ennesial outcome I wanted was for the case to be dismissed. And after 2weeks of processing the case, Mr. Plaut did just that. He is a God sent..especially for a young person like me and also all the concerns that surrounded my situation. He's Awesome!! :)

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.
