Very Disappointed!

I hired Angela to represent me in a legal matter. I paid her $3,000 and received nothing but disappointment. Mrs. Griffin failed to come to 2 of my hearings and has not submitted any forms to the court on my behalf. I have received no hourly logs of her time, or anything to show any sort of work on m...y behalf at all. I had to let her go and asked for a at least half my money back. She doesn't respond back, whether by email/texts or calls. I will be reporting her to the Washington Bar Assoc.

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.
