Posted by anonymous | October 28, 2025 | Hired Attorney | Child Custody

Never again.

Terrible experience overall as I spent over $20k in lawyer fees in the separation and lost an other $12k/ year in child custody. All that to receive a terrible deal and I am still disappointed years later.

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.
