Personal injury lawyer | Mar 02

Relationship: Opposing Counsel on matter

"When I was an insurance defense attorney, I had the pleasure of working on the opposite side of several personal injury matters with Kathryn Hermann. I found Ms. Herrman to be tenacious in her representation of her clients, in addition to being honest and full of integrity. Because of her excellent representation, her clients recovered top dollar for their cases. I give her my highest recommendation."

Relationship: Opposing Counsel on matter

"I have had a couple of cases as opposing counsel against Kathryn. Suffice it to say she is an exceptional litigator and trial attorney who gets great results for her clients. Unlike many attorneys I encounter, Kathryn truly cares about her clients. She is able to zealously advocate for them while maintaining the highest ethical standards. I have referred clients to her with the highest confidence and will continue to do so in the future."

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.
