VERY SATISFIED!!!

Mr. Ricketts was my lawyer in a visitation case for my son, as I am from the state of Wisconsin. Mr. Ricketts explained all the procedures and expectations of what my case would entail. He worked easily with me over the phone and when I traveled to Washington. Mr. Ricketts knowledge of the law is ex...cellent. I would recommend Mr. Ricketts to anyone looking for a great family lawyer. I always felt like I was his only client. Give him a call today!

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.
