Hired Attorney Deborah L. Gordon

Deborah, along with her team of Leah and Emma took over my case after I had to terminate my relationship with first attorney. They showed me a professional plan with the effort and action that had been missing. I only wish I had done it earlier. The difference was like night and day. I would absolutely give them my business again. Extremely happy with the entire team. My case went as well as it could from where they picked it up. All I could ask for.

Hired Law Firm

Working with Ashley and Tyler at Van Siclen Stocks & Firkins was an EXCEPTIONAL experience from start to finish. No one wants to be in a legal situation, but this law firm made it actually bearable!! The dedicated team of Ashley and Tyler provided unparalleled expertise and guidance throughout my case. From initially conversing with Ashley to the final resolution, they demonstrated empathy, professionalism and a commitment to acheiving the best possible outcome! While working with Ashley early on during this journey, it became immediately clear that this was going to be a partnership between attorney and client. Their attention to detail and strategic approach gave me confidence, encouragement and support each step of the way. They complimented one another very well and our conversations, while tough at times, also included many smiles and laughs I whole-heartedly and HIGHLY recommend Van Siclen Stocks & Firkins to anyone in need of legal representation. Thank YOU!

I would recommend Van Siclen Stocks & Firkins to anyone looking for an attorney. I had the pleasure of having Mr. Stocks represent me in my divorce proceedings. He is knowledgeable, kind, understanding and a genuine person. I feel like everyone at this law firm supported both me and my child through a very difficult time in our lives. My case was complicated; it involved mediation, court, a trial and an appeal. Never once did they give up on me or my case. They always gave me the correct an

Words alone are not adequate to give John Stocks the recognition he deserves. He is a true professional, always prepared, quick to return emails and answer all my questions. Yet there is so much more to John than legal expertise and professionalism. He genuinely cares about his clients. John was the advocate I needed, always providing strong legal counsel and looking out for my best interest.

John Stocks represented me in a divorce from January to March 14 of 2012. He explained his fees, kept me informed of progress and made me feel comfortable. Soon after the conclusion of the case staff sent me a detailed bill. The charge was reasonable.{para}This evaluation is limited to experience with John Stocks; other employees of the firm are not included.

Lawyers.com Client Reviews

Martindale-Hubbell® Client Review Ratings™ display reviews submitted by individuals who have either hired or consulted the lawyers or law firms.

The Client Review Rating score is determined through the aggregation of validated responses. People who submit reviews are either individuals who consulted with the lawyer/law firm or who hired the lawyer/law firm and want to share their experience of that lawyer or law firm with other potential clients. Reviewers can be anyone who consults or hires a lawyer including in-house counsel, corporate executives, small business owners, and private individuals.

Martindale-Hubbell validates that a reviewer is a person with a valid email address. As part of the review process, respondents must affirm that they have had an initial consultation, are currently a client or have been a client of the lawyer or law firm identified, although Martindale-Hubbell cannot confirm the lawyer/client relationship as it is often confidential. The content of the responses is entirely from reviewers.

Prior results do not guarantee a similar outcome and Martindale-Hubbell accepts no responsibility for the content or accuracy of any review. For more information on Martindale-Hubbell Client Review Ratings, please visit our Client Review Page

Martindale Peer Reviews

Martindale-Hubbell® Peer Review Ratings™ are the gold standard in attorney ratings, and have been for more than a century. These ratings indicate attorneys who are widely respected by their peers for their ethical standards and legal expertise in a specific area of practice.

The Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings process is the gold standard due to its objectivity and comprehensiveness. Lawyers solicited for peer reviews include both those selected by the attorney being reviewed and lawyers independently selected by Martindale-Hubbell. All reviewers are verified as attorneys through Martindale-Hubbell’s extensive attorney database. Only attorneys practicing at least three years and receiving a sufficient number of reviews from non-affiliated attorneys are eligible to receive a Rating.

What are the different Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings?*

• AV Preeminent®: The highest peer rating standard. This rating signifies that a large number of the lawyer’s peers rank him or her at the highest level of professional excellence for their legal knowledge, communication skills and ethical standards.

• Distinguished: An excellent rating for a lawyer with some experience. This rating indicates the attorney is widely respected by their peers for high professional achievement and ethical standards.

• Notable: This rating indicates that the lawyer has been recognized by a large number of their peers for strong ethical standards.

Lawyers who have received peer reviews after 2009 will display more detailed information, including practice areas, summary ratings, detailed numeric ratings and written feedback (if available). Details for individual reviews received before 2009 are not displayed.

Attorneys that receive reviews from their peers, but not a sufficient number to establish a Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Rating, will have those reviews display on our websites.

For more information on Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings™, please visit our Ratings Page on Martindale.com and our Frequently Asked Questions

Avvo Client Reviews

Ratings and reviews are feedback from people who have either consulted an attorney about an issue (but may not have hired the attorney) or people who hired an attorney as a current or former client and provided their feedback to our sister site, Avvo.com.
