Be sure to ask quesitons.

Attorney was hired. Be sure to ask questions and understand your case. He is a flat fee attorney, be aware of what that means and how much he will and won't work on your case. Very little was done on my case. Do your research and do not rely on reviews or credentials.

Posted by Flynn | May 12, 2016 | Hired Attorney

Extremely professional and very helpful

He is an attorney that is extremely knowledgeable in various aspects of the law and did an awesome job at helping me remain confident. He doesn't beat around the bush and tells it how it is where as some attorneys will tell you what you want to hear just to get cash from your pocket. I felt very comf...ortable with him as my attorney and would highly recommend him to anyone that is in need.

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.
