Questions about the Avvo Rating?
The Avvo Rating is our assessment of how well a lawyer could handle your legal issue. It is based on data we collected about the lawyer, including the attorney’s experience practicing law, professional achievements, and disciplinary sanctions (if any). This data comes from several sources, including state bar associations, court records, and lawyer Web sites, as well as information that lawyers provide to Avvo. We’ve created a mathematical model that takes all this information into account and calculates a score on a 10-point scale. Learn more about the Avvo Rating.
