Landlord-Tenant

Shauna Cahill was referred to our Property Management Company to help us mitigate issues within our properties. Since then, she has done several cases for us to protect against tenants who skipped on rent, destroyed real property, assisted with licensing issues, etc. Her attention to detail and qui...ck response time is stellar.

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.
