Highly Satisfied Client

We won a judgment in 2008 and it sat dormant until we contacted Meredith in 2015. We discussed the case in depth and she discovered there were attachable assets external to a bankruptcy filing. Meredith conducted extensive legal research and discovered a couple of cases relating to our situation wh...ich allowed us to prevail in the face of a second bankruptcy filing. Upon the debtors attorney discovering he could not prevent a foreclosure of some real estate he thought was protected under the bankruptcy code, he recommended to the debtor the case be settled. Meredith swiftly negotiated a large settlement. At all times through phone calls and face to face meetings, she was extremely pleasant to deal with and educated us in the complexities of the case so we clearly understood all critical points. I would highly recommend Meredith Long to anyone seeking legal counsel in her field of expertise.

Best Experience

Meredith helped us through some uneasy days and made the process very comfortable and efficient. Being named in a bankruptcy lawsuit, she was able to get us into a settlement without the case going to trial, saving us a ton of money and stress over the holidays. She was very responsive and was extr...emely knowledgeable. I would recommend her without reservation. Working with her was great!!

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.
