Excellent counsel and execution

Jessica and her firm helped us through the purchase of the assets of an existing business on an accelerated timeline. She provided excellent advice, drafted agreements, edited contracts from the seller's lawyer to protect our interests, and negotiated the sale successfully. She was a pleasure t...o work with, and we'll definitely work with her and her firm again.

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.
