A very talented attorney and legal team!

I hired Mr. Farano to represent and defend a family trust in which I was the successor trustee. A family member sued the family trust that resulted in a trial in Probate Court. I was exceedingly impressed with Mr. Farano’s professionalism, legal skills, and pragmatism in preparing my case for cou...rt. He always came well prepared for court and made himself available for my questions as well as billed very fairly. Mr. Farano also has a very talented and professional office team that were a pleasure to work with and always supportive. Mr. Farano and his office team really provide exceptional, legal, representation. I highly recommend commissioning Mr. Farano for your legal needs.

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.
