Relationship: Opposing Counsel on matter

"I worked with Karl on a transaction in which he represented a business owner selling the business to two key employees (I represented the employees purchasing the business). Karl did a great job keeping the transaction on track and preparing documents that were fair and reasonable for all parties. I know that my clients had a high comfort level with Karl and felt that the deal went well."

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.
