Horrible experience

He just took my money. If he couldn’t handle the case he should not have took my case nor money. When I questioned him about his representation he yelled at me to shut the f up. Then fired me as a client. He represented me knowing it was a conflict of interest with the judge. I don’t recommend him to... anyone. $4500 down the drain. That’s money I could have spent on my kids instead

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.
