Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

"I give my highest recommendation to Colton Theer. I first met Colton when he was hired as a law clerk at my firm, and then I continued to see him grow as he went off to law school, and now as an attorney. Colton is fearless, resourceful, and dedicated to achieving the best possible results for his clients. Colton also won his very first jury trial; a feat most attorneys cannot claim. Colton is a fighter, and his clients are well-served by his skills and passion. I recommend Colton without hesitation."

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.
