Broker Dealer Dispute

Bob: I just wanted to send you a note now that all this is behind us, to let you know how much we appreciate your effort on our behalf. If it was not for you, we would never have been able to recover anything from our broker/dealer. My sincere thanks for all your help. J.B., California

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.
