Talented and Professional

My ex-husband had been abusing me and tormenting me for years. Finally, I had the courage to call the police and try and get a restraining order. The police refused to give me an emergency restraining order. Cameron went to court with me the following day and the judge granted me a temporary restrain...ing order. I was given a court date to come back later to request the permanent RO. Cameron and his team worked extremely hard to put together case binders that were impeccable. Because of Cameron and his team I was granted a 5 year RO and I have never felt so confident and safe. Thank you to Mr. Talley for giving me back my peace of mind and safety.

Criminal defense lawyer | Apr 23

Relationship: Worked together on matter

"Cameron Talley was a legend in the Orange County DA's Office, where I worked with him for many years. He was an extraordinarily effective homicide prosecutor. He was respected by both sides, as well as the judges, for his ability to look at the individual merits of the cases he prosecuted and seek justice with integrity. Cameron's life experience and intelligence led him to stand out among his peers. The defense bar is fortunate to have him join our ranks. I would refer a client to him with great confidence."

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.
