AMAZING!

My daughter was involved in a situation that required an attorney with a "particular set of skills." We got all that and a whole lot more. Derek cleared his calendar and reacted to our needs immediately. Derek was incredibly professional and competent. He made several personal appearances on my daugh...ters behalf and kept me up to date with every development. The end result of Derek's representation was better than I could have ever imagined. During our ordeal my daughter regularly told me "the thing I like the most is that he always asks me how I'm doing and I truly believe he cares." Thank you Derek for all you have done for us, your truly a gifted attorney and more importantly a good person...

I recommend Derek

Derek was absolutely great. I could not get help with my employment matter from anyone, but his firm took the case and fought it all the way. He believed in me, and had the skill to ultimately beat the other side.

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.
