FAVORABLE RESULTS IN APPLIANCE LIABILITY CASE

Richard Boyer represented us in a law suit against a major appliance manufacturer who's product caused a fire in our kitchen. I was fearful that the size of the manufacturer would over whelm our legal effort. Mr. Boyer paid strict attention to the case and kept us fully informed as to the status o...f the litigation. In the end it was Mr. Boyer's negotiating skills that got us a settlement that was both favorable and just. We are most appreciative as efforts on our behalf.

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.
