Hired Attorney Jack Cohoon

I have never worked with an attorney before. Jack made me feel very comfortable on the phone and meeting him in person. I felt like Jack really knows his business in employment law. I would remind him to anyone.

Hired Attorney Grant LeFever

I was referred to Grant by another lawyer who did not handle employment matters, and I’m very glad they sent me her way. From the very beginning, she dug into my case and stayed persistent through every stage of the litigation process. She was easy to talk to, took the time to listen to my concerns, and always made sure I understood what was happening. What really stood out was her professionalism and reliability. Grant actually returned my calls, followed through on everything she said she would do, and guided me with honesty and confidence. It’s rare to find an attorney who combines determination, clear communication, understanding and genuine care for their clients. I highly recommend Grant to anyone looking for an attorney who truly goes above and beyond for her clients.

Hired Attorney Nekki Shutt

Nekki Shutt worked on negotiating my severance agreement after I was unexpectedly laid off from my job. She was helpful and communicative, and successful at getting more from the company on my behalf. Her effort was meticulous and greatly appreciated.

Hired Attorney Lydia Hendrix

Working with Mrs Hendrix was extremely helpful . She is an expert in her field and I couldn’t have accomplished what we needed to without her. This was all new to me and I felt like I had no where to turn until I met her. I am extremely thankful for everything she has done to help our daughter and completing all her dreams in her future education. I would recommend Mrs Hendrix to anyone who needs guidance through our education system.

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.
