Review of Anthony Vaupel

To those in search of a quality attorney: I have been given the opportunity to shortly state my experience with Mr. Vaupel. I have personally been working with Mr. Vaupel for a little over 2 years now. He has helped me in many areas of the law and has given nothing less than an outstanding effort... in every situation. His ethical standards are beyond reproach coupled with him being a very compassionate individual. His most notable characteristics are his drive and his intelligence. What is more, unlike any other attorney I have dealt with in my life he works for his client’s legal rights and situations as opposed to working for their money. I enthusiastically endorse Mr. Vaupel in any area of law in which he practices. In closing, it is once in a blue moon that one can say lawyer and completely satisfied in the same sentence, but in this case the blue moon is shining. Sincerely, Nick Downin Galesburg, Illinois

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.
