Posted by Johnny Girgis | July 29, 2016 | Hired Attorney | Debt Settlement

Best Lawyer in OC!

My father passed away and I was very worried about the debts left behind as well as my mothers estate. David in just two meetings at our home comforted me with his process and advise, took on the challenge of dealing with the debt and structured a trust to fully protect my mothers assets. After just ...a few months David let me know all debts were cleared and that there was nothing to worry about. Biggest relief and it's all from David's amazing service, thank you David!

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.
