WasteXpress Environmental Services Review

Thomas assisted my firm with developing environmental permits, compliance issues, interfaced positively with state agencies including state attorneys, worked closely and successfully with our team of environmental consultants and tended to numerous other matters that led to good resolutions for our b...usiness. He is extremely professional, diligent, consistent and very conscience of our budget and legal costs.

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.
