This review is from a potential client who consulted with this attorney.

Knowledgeable, effective, caring

Mr Underwood helped me navigate successfully multiple issues with employer. He was prompt to answer phone calls and emails, was available for appointments and helped me managed successfully a very stressful situation. This is the guy you want on your side.

This review is from a potential client who consulted with this attorney.

He got upset

All I wanted to know is how to go about getting report time off, overtime and passing the 5th hour without lunch and he starting to get mad by raising his voice. No wonder no one wants to deal with people like this guy, over a consultation and you are getting upset. If you dont like your job, please ...find something better to do. I would not recommend him or even pick up his call when he is calling you back to talk to you.

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.
