Best Representation one can find

Neil worked extremely fast for me while he was my divorce lawyer. He made himself readily available. I could contact him and within the hour I would get a reply to my question/concern. Neil was very professional in court, and I felt extremely comfortable up there with him as my representation. He mad...e sure he had every necessary piece of documentation prepared and ready to go for court. His confidence cast out any nerves that I had going in. I would definitely recommend Mr. Connolly to anyone looking for a lawyer to work hard for them, support and defend their cause.

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.
