Miriam Hiser can get response and results from companies who choose to ignore their responsibilities

Miriam Hiser represented me in a dispute with a large developer of an adjacent property. She quickly took the time to review my property rights, evaluate the history, meet the people involved, and defend my damage claims. She found case law supporting my claims, and engaged the other parties professi...onally. Without her help, I believe the developer would never have responded without court proceedings. We were able to reach a settlement acceptable to all.

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.
