The Best Attorney in OC

Beverly is one of the smartest, most capable people that I have ever met. Even in the most difficult and complex of cases, she was able to fully absorb, articulate, and successfully defend me on 100% of the issues at hand. Beverly was affordable, communicative, aggressive, and most importantly 100%... effective. Thank you Beverly!

Great advice and lawyer!

Beverly represented my company on a number of litigation matters, all of which concluded to our satisfaction. She is a smart, hard-working attorney who provides excellent results-oriented, practical advice. We would use her again without hesitation.

Relationship: Worked together on matter

"Beverly is an excellent business litigator. I’ve known her professionally for almost 20 years, and I have firsthand knowledge of her professional skills and abilities. She was a colleague when we worked together at a national law firm in the 1990s; she then served as outside litigation counsel to a company at which I was the in-house general counsel, and she handled multiple litigation matters for us; and since 2007, I have referred to her a number of clients for her to handle their litigation matters. Beverly has the highest integrity, and she is very passionate about what she does. She provides big firm expertise and experience at an economical rate. She is very smart, and she couples that intelligence with practical advice to help her clients achieve the results they seek. I would recommend her (and I do so regularly) to my clients without reservation."

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.
