Honest, Direct, and Strategic

I worked with John regarding a landlord/tenant dispute over withheld rent and security deposit. John was quick to respond, persistent in following up, and his advice was succinct and direct. His strategy ultimately saved me a lot of time and anguish that I fear I would've needed to go through if anot...her attorney had not helped me resolve the dispute so quickly and effectively. I would call on John again without hesitation and recommend him to others with the highest regards.

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.
