Attorney Combs promised and delivered

I am an attorney in the Virgin Islands. I hired Attorney Combs for a probate / real estate matter in North Dakota. She explained the exact fees and costs up front and the process. She - and her staff - completed the tasks as she detailed in our initial consultation. Her office was prompt and prof...essional. I recommend Attorney Combs.

Mineral Rights Research

Ms. Combs represented me while I was executrix of a complicated estate probate proceeding involving numerous mineral rights accounts in North Dakota and did an excellent job. She was professional, thorough and expedited the affairs on a timely basis. She was very informed on all aspects of mineral ri...ght investigations and did an exceptional job of helping me. I highly recommend her services.

Mineral Rights Dispute

Ms. Combs was recommended to us by a Wyoming O&G company. With our company being in Illinois and the dispute in North Dakota, we were a little apprehensive about hiring out of state counsel. We could not have made a better choice! Ms. Combs expertise in the field resolved the dispute in record tim...e. Another law firm wasted 1.5 years of our time and money. Thanks to Ms. Combs, she got us back on track and we are now receiving our royalty and participation payments. THANK YOU JANNELLE!

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.
