Skilled lawyer, generous with his time

Mr. Bassett has helped us three times, and each time his advice led to a successful outcome for us. He always puts our interests ahead of his own. In one situation, his advice included that we were better off without a lawyer; he advised us how to proceed on our own, and it worked out perfectly. In a...nother situation, Mr. Bassett helped us more than the lawyer we had hired to help us.

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.
