Excellent atty

Karen has been an outstanding estate attorney. She helped me and my partner understand our options and coached us thoughtfully through our decision-making process. Her experience is invaluable and she asked questions we never would have thought of. She helped re-do my mothers trust when my mom was on... hospice - and was insightful about understanding family dynamics, which really made the process go smoothly.

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.
