Creative, Smart, Hardworking

Cole has been my attorny for nearly a decade. He has been creative and extreemly diligent in finding solutions to challenging problems. From real estate to litigation, I always feel more confident with Cole by my side. Is he overly goodlooking, I'll take the 5th! Amazing lawer? Guilty as charged....

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.
