Worth Every Penny

So happy I contacted Sally Chenault and hired her to represent me in my custody matter. Sally cares about her clients and focuses on making a hard situation better especially with children. She negotiated a fair settlement of our dispute and did it with heart. Plus, her staff is amazing, caring an...d responsive. I would definitely recommend Sally and her firm!

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.
