Review for Loyd Willaford

Loyd listened. He took my summary of my case and formulated a well thought out plan of action. He guided me through each step and showed me that there were multiple possibilities to work with. He was patient with me and he explained the various processes all along the way. He was an excellent attor...ney for employee issues and had a very solid foundation for this type of a case before taking my case. I felt very confident from the beginning and throughout the process.

Very Personable

He explained everything as to how things would play out if we were to go to court and was always very honest with me. I really felt more prepared than I thought I ever was when I needed to be. Very personable and honest about how the little things really are sometimes the important things. I truly ...felt he was an advocate for my best interest. I truly hated but so appreciated the deposition practice and the video taping of it. I learned how being a person sometimes even though you know something is or truly isn't right its all in the eyes or ears of the other person.

Lloyd Willaford

There was a real connection at my first meeting. I was broken and did not know which way to go, but Mr. Willaford listened with an empathic ear and heard my pain. We talked, I cried, there were times I was drained, but he guided me every step of the way. Thank you

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.
