The best

Lorrie took on my case after several other forms wouldn't consider my case. She kept me apprised of the entire process with realistic expectations. She won a settlement for me that was beyond what I thought possible. Lorrie was easy to communicate with as she answered all e-mails in a prompt and p...rofessional matter. She is the best.

Great Attorney

Very helpful attorney, she was able to get my settlement in a timely manner. Emailed me any updates on my case and was very attentive to any questions I had.

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.
