Posted by Tom | November 14, 2011 | Personal Injury

A great job from a lawyer and former client

Emily & Mike Kelly of her firm represented me after I survived falling out a 4th floor Bay Area hotel room window four years ago. They visited me in a local hospital & injury rehab center, stayed in touch via phone & e-mail after I returned home to Florida, brought together a first-rate team of e...xpert witnesses and guided me through the sometimes confounding and confusing California personal injury litigation process. Client management isn't a class in any law school that I know of and it can be tricky to handle a client whose friends have called him a "victim of terminal candor", but Emily and Mike did it well. Emily went so far as to "friend" me on Facebook and make sure I didn't post anything that could hurt the case. Emily and Mike were professional, extremely thorough and they kept the tone dedicated but not fanatical. They worked out a settlement that helped all and hurt none, but neither they nor I had the slightest doubt that they were ready to go to trial if need be and prevail.

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.
