An Advocate for Truth and Justice

Carol has been representing me for over 7 months, and I will tell you that she is above reproach, her honesty, integrity and trust is her greatest strength. You add compassion and hard work; and what you have is a recipe for success. She also demands the same from me, and expects me to be... above reproach as well, this is very important to her, because it makes for a winning combination. She is very knowledgeable, responsive to how I feel, and she keeps me informed every step of the way, whether the issue is in my favor or not, she tells me the truth about each situation, but remains positive and upbeat, when things are not exactly going our way. She is not just my lawyer, but also my advocate, I am so proud that she is in my life and very happy to recommend her to others. --Gregory J Nashif - Vancouver, Washington USA

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.
