A great asset and attorney.

Julie has been a great asset to my company in handling all of the business transactions and every other aspect of the company's legal needs. She has also been an incredible resource for my company's clients for their estate planning. She went above and beyond in addressing all of their concerns and... ensured that they had the right plan for their families. I endorse her with no hesitation.

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.
