Lydia is a smart and talented trial attorney. I have gotten the pleasure to work alongside her and have been inspired by her courage and tenacious spirit. This attorney takes on hard cases, and gets amazing results. This is truly an attorney that money can't buy. Her clients will quickly find that sh...e truly cares for each and every one of them. Wouldn't be surprised at all to see this woman on the bench one day.

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.
