Do not handle your family case with this "Commissioner"

In my experience, this Commissioner has been extremely inconsistent in his rulings and has failed to properly address clear issues presented before the Court. Several attorneys have also expressed concerns about the inconsistency of his decisions. It has been very frustrating to present evidence and ...arguments only to feel that the issues are not being carefully reviewed or fairly considered. I believe the public deserves a more consistent, prepared, and accountable judicial officer.

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.
