Legal services

I have had the pleasure of working with Katy Young. Let's be honest, if you need an attorney you are likely not in a great place. Katy was not only the ever professional but there is a human side to her that is hard to find in the legal world. With her guidance and knowledge I was able to accomplish ...what needed to be done. I would recommend her without hesitation to any of my loved ones. I am forever grateful for Katy's guidance. I hope I do not need her services again, but if I do I am relieved to know she will be in my corner. I could not recommend her enough.

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.
