the best!

I simply cannot say enough great things about Ryan! I was facing a traumatic and unsettling criminal issue, and Ryan was patient, compassionate, and concise in guiding me through it all. We had a fantastic outcome with my case, and at every step, he was prompt, communicative, and helpful! I owe my s...uccess in this matter to his competence, and am eternally grateful for his kindness and professionalism! I highly recommend Ryan to any and all in need. Thank you so much Ryan!

Incredibly helpful and caring

Ryan helped my wife and I immensely when we were criminally threatened by our tenant. He gave us sound legal advice while ensuring that both of us were safe. Ryan has unprecedented legal knowledge and makes his clients 100% comfortable understanding the legalities of all issues. Cannot recommend him ...enough.

Focused, Articulate and Thoughtful

Ryan is an asset to anyone needing legal assistance. Whether it is a simple question, a case where you need valuable perspective, or the beginning of a long and arduous process, Ryan has the knowledge and intellect that you want on your side. His thoughtful demeanor, his knowledge of the law and his... desire to succeed are all traits that are surprisingly lacking with some other attorneys. I would not hesitate to use Ryan for any of my legal needs now and in the future.

Great attorney!

I've consulted Ryan over the last year on several legal matters, both personal and financial. His knowledge of the law is comprehensive and his counsel has been invaluable to me. I've talked to a few other lawyers in the past that I felt good about and were knowledgeable, but where Ryan really stoo...d apart from the others was in his ability to help me fully grasp my options and clarify the legal process so I could make hard decisions with confidence. I was getting pushed around and feeling a bit intimidated before he helped me fight back. I'm very thankful to have Ryan there when I need him!

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.
