EDD Case

I hired Glicel to represent me on my case for unemployment benefits after my employer wrongfully denied me of them. When I initially contacted Glicel she was more than willing to listen to my full story and always answered my emails and calls promptly. She stood by me every step of the way and I alwa...ys felt like she truly cared. She fought for me until I won my case. I couldn't thank 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.
