This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

Brilliant, smart and kind

Bridget excepted my situation and immediately Doug in to get results. Bridget took everything I said to heart and sorted out the details. Her motions to the court resulted in a win and I couldn’t be happier! If you or someone you know needs a brilliant attorney, I highly recommend Bridget Schuster.

Excellent!

Bridget was a wonderful help when we decided it was time to write a will. She was very accommodating, met with us multiple times, gave us lots of things to think about. She knows how important our family is to us and made every effort to provide us with the right advice and a will we we can feel secu...re with. I highly recommend Bridget.

Great Lawyer

Bridget is very professional and easy to work with. She is patient, listens to my thoughts and ideas, and works together with me as a team on my second case already. She not only has professional knowledge as an attorney, but she has strong moral values that show up in her work. I appreciate Bridg...et's work for me and her professional demeanor.

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.
