Professional, knowledgeable and efficient.

I highly recommend Tamara. I needed someone knowledgeable in family estates, wills, trusts, etc., to help keep an eye out for my interests in a rather complicated family mess. She was professional, respectful and efficient, making the complex simple for me. We worked through the necessary legal steps... to resolve several pieces of a detailed puzzle, all the while keeping an eye out for my best interests: not padding her billing. Every time we talked, she answered all my questions, and we kept chalking off the tasks to get the whole mess under control. She stuck with it, and me, through the end. She treated all parties professionally, and with respect. Including the ones I had issues with. She was very patient and knew the laws related to my case. I have no reservations about calling Tamara again for any legal needs in this arena.

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.
