Pleased from beginning to end

I was very pleased with the whole process from beginning to end. I was especially pleased that even when my attorney wasn't available that his assistant was up to speed on my case and able to provide me with the answers I needed. Thank you Mr. J.R. Parker and Katie for all your assistance.

Posted by Mike | October 05, 2010 | Lawsuits & Disputes

Responsive and thorough

Everything with my case went perfectly, and I couldn't be happier with the results. Attorney J.R. Parker was on top of all the facts and did a great job. He was able to tell my story exactly as I experienced it, through my eyes. His firm was always responsive to my calls and questions, and took care ...of every aspect of the case for me. Everything went fantastic! I would refer anybody who needs a lawyer to 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.
