Super Lawyer- Effective, Efficient and Ethical

Our business is very niche, so our legal requirements are can be complex, unusual and take time. Frank streamlines the legal process, helps us make strong Legal and Business decisions. More importantly they have help us collect on Tens of Thousands of dollars of Loss of Use revenue and damage claim...s. It is nice to know that we have a Law firm that works hard for us and cares about our financial profitability. I would highly recommend Frank and his group they are simply fantastic.

Wage Garnishment Issue

I had a surprise wage garnishment happen and Frank helped me navigate the waters in verifying it was legit and facilitating a settlement. Frank is very knowledgeable with debt collection matters. His expertise was extremely valuable and very much appreciated. He went above and beyond with his service..., and I was very happy with the results. I would definitely hire Frank again.

Excellent, honest advice

I reached out to Francis Huguenin regarding a family / landlord-tenant issue. He called me back very quickly (over the weekend) and gave me excellent advice. He didn't charge me because we decided that the best course of action (for now) was to wait and not escalate the situation. However, if we do n...eed to go to court in the future, he is the first person I will call.

He got my '50k promise to pay back loan' money back

I should have placed a lien on the property I lent money on. A service that Frank was going to do for me but I dropped the ball and didn't follow through. After the property sold and my friend decided not to pay me for the loan from the sale profits, I got Mr Huguenin to go get it back for me. Luc...kily I had texts of the conversation and he presented it to the judge and clerk and awarded me the entire amount of the loan plus interest. He was professional, he got close to the billing amount he thought it would be for his fees. Good communication and transparency. He was committed to helping me because he knew I was in the right. I am across the nation from him and trusted his firm and I am very glad I did. Absolutely 0 complaints on how he does business and gets the job done. If there was 6 stars, I give it.

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.
