Ethical and Very Professional

After experiencing what havoc an inexperienced and unprofessional family attorney could have on my family, I was relieved to find Mr. Canaday through a colleague referral. Not only was he generous with his time and vast professional knowledge, I felt he truly cared about the outcome of the child sup...port and custody matters he represented me in. Although family matters in court are never easy because no one ever truly wins and the children always lose in bitter feuds between parents. The "war" that was waged against me was better fought with Mr. Canaday's ethical representation in my corner.

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.
