Incredibly satisfied

Hired Karen as I was looking to get into a new business venture and wanted to make sure all my bases were covered. Her experience, not only from a legal perspective, but from having a background in business and business formation made her a great resource. She was able to draft a sound operating agre...ement. She was able to give me real advise about the risks and things that I could do to protect the interests of myself and my family. When it didn’t work out she was still there, ready willing and able to provide any assistance she could. I really appreciate her insight as well as her honesty. Some of the things I was going to need to dive into did not fall in her area of expertise, so she offered to refer me to an individual that specialized in that particular area. Her billing practices are fair, transparent, and to me, seem very client focused. That being said, I will continue to reach out to Karen first for all my legal needs, trusting that she is more than capable of takeing care of me, and knowing that she will refer me to the right people if it is in my best interest.

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.
