Great Experience Throughout Everything

J.D. was thoughtful, knowledgeable on all the questions I had and he got me the answers I needed. He responded the same day when I asked my question as well. Highly recommended.

Mesothelioma and asbestos lawyer | Jul 01

Relationship: Worked together on matter

"Mr. McMullen is one of the best attorneys that I have had the pleasure of working with. I have worked with him on several matters, and every time, he vigorously represents his clients. He is able to investigate a case, and find products and companies to sue, that most attorneys would overlook. When Mr. McMullen works on a case, he gets more money for his clients than other attorneys would with the exact same case. This is due to his work ethic, and the fact that he is does not give up until the companies that hurt his clients are brought to justice."

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.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education

  • 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.
