Showing 1 - 1 of 1 review | Divorce & Separation

Posted by anonymous | November 09, 2012 | Divorce & Separation

Great work, Great results

Mr. Winkler represented me in collecting a debt owed to me under my divorce decree. His advice and strategy was sound, he was pleasant to work with, his rates were reasonable, and most importantly, he got results. As a fellow lawyer, I can say he was worth every penny, and I would gladly hire him a...gain should the need arise.

Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

"I endorse Colin. He is a highly skilled attorney that is well respected in the legal community."

Commercial real estate lawyer | Feb 03

Relationship: Opposing Counsel on matter

"Mr. Winkler is a very skilled attorney whose experience particularly in the area of judgment collection has given him procedural knowledge to handle even rarer collection matters. He has always been professional and courteous, and has quickly distinguished himself as a respectable adversary. I have known Mr. Winkler now for two years, first as an adversary and now as a colleague. If I had a potential client I could not serve (due to conflicts or otherwise) who needed complex procedural judgment enforcement assistance I would not hesitate to refer that client to Mr. Winkler."

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.
