Surface Attorney Does the Bare Minimum

He is an okay attorney... he knows the laws but not your case. He knows enough to skate by but not necessarily fight for all your rights. He is all about settling and not aggressive representation. I was a personal client and his follow up is non-existent his paralegal Fran did all the hard work.

DUI and DWI lawyer | Jul 25

Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

"Mr. Borden knows the local courts very well, and has been a long-time member of the California DUI lawyer's association. That's what clients should want in an attorney: someone who is willing to do the work necessary to be well-prepared for court, on top of developments in the law and possessing the technical skills and experience necessary for successful criminal defense. As an out-of-town attorney, I approached Mark who provided sage advice to me on more than one occasion."

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.
