Hired Attorney Celeste Dunn

Attorney Dunn is one of the most experienced attorneys I have ever dealt with. She handled litigation for my service dog, Logan. She controlled the courtroom and other attorneys to a degree that all they could do is break the law to have their way. I can say this to very few in our justice system but she is extremely respectful, knowledgeable and trustworthy in the highest order....a true professional. She is the right person for her cause. Thank you attorney Dunn for all you've done.

Hired Attorney Celeste Dunn

I have found that many attorneys promote themselves as experts in animal law when they are not. Celeste Dunn is the real deal. She is extremely well versed in all applicable statues and knows exactly how to apply them. I was very impressed with Celeste's legal performance, genuine compassion and professionalism after I was served with a 40 page summons by neighbors to have our dogs put down. Celeste filed a strong motion on our behalf and the frivolous complaint was dismissed before the hearing.

Hired Law Firm

They seemed to be a very good law firm but after dealing with them they seemed only interested with a quick win even if that meant getting less for their client.

Not recommended personally because they give clients horrible advice that might even get them in trouble for perjury. Told a client bad advice and now the client might catch a perjury charge for taking lawyers advice.

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.
