An exceptional team

I was incredibly stressed about my case, but Alan and his assistant, Lissa, were exceptional. They handled my case with immense professionalism and expertise. They were responsive, kind, and truly cared about the outcome. Alan is deeply knowledgeable and strategic, and truly cares about achieving ...the best results. Lissa is exceptionally organized and handles paperwork efficiently. She is proactive with communication, ensuring the process moved forward smoothly.

Incredible Lawyer who fought for me and won!

Alan did an incredible job representing me back in 2002 and to this day I have so much to thank him for. He was informative, kept me apprised of the options available to us and always had my best interest at heart. Alan and his team where honest, forthright, aggressive and infallible when it came t...o my case. Hire this man, hire him immediately for any of your legal needs!

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.
