Excellent Attorney

Mr. Smith is an excellent attorney. I am more than satisfied with the outcome of my case.

Posted by Dennis | October 08, 2019 | Hired Attorney | Lawsuits & Disputes

Great service

I retained Mr. Michael Smith ln early march of this year to represent me in a case I felt was unjust & after reading the statute,he agreed. Mr.Smith did exactly what he said he was going to & try to get it dismissed, and he succeeded.also Mr.Smith's legal assistant,Rose is awesome,as I reside in an...other state,Rose kept me totally informed as the case moved forward,including several court appearances by Mr.Smith on my behalf.I would highly recommend Mr.Smith & his firm to anyone seeking legal advice & assistance

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.
