Avvo Reviews 

I wrote so many review times for my lawyers and always denied for malpractice lawyers. I believe AVVO did not take bad rating and probably works for lawyers.

I’ve had plenty of problems with them before where I could submit the exact same review over and over again and eventually it gets approved once it hits a reasonable approver. Today, I was told that I accused an attorney of illegal or an ethical conduct without providing any details.

Please look at the provided submission and tell me how I didn’t provide details. I did; their reasoning is bogus.

“Title - Walked into unnecessary services

These guys were clearly looking for an opportunity to make money off of us. My ex husband was apparently walked into an unnecessary mediation when for some unknown reason he called to get advice for an uncontested divorce. So, it was much to my surprise when they contacted me to schedule a mediation and then several weeks later asked for $300 for me. When I wrote them saying I never asked for this and I wasn’t paying them anything, I received a snarky imprudent response, which was my typical experience whenever there was conflict when I lived in Kendallville, from the owner essentially indicating I wasted his time.“

Garbage site. I asked a question, it got taken down. Yet the site still spams me with promotional offers.

A pretty pointless site. If you ask a question for guidance on where to look for information or what are some steps you can take the answer provides can usually be summed up to “I don’t know you should hire a lawyer”. Along with this the lawyers never respond on the site. Better of just using google

Avvo actively DOESN'T deliver my question to relevant attorneys sending them to unqualified ones or bots on purpose and then deletes EVERY question so I can't get help. It is obstruction of justice for the consumer. Again this is every question ongoing also there is deliberate race and gender discrimination to users to prevent the right attorneys from connecting and when you explicitly state the expertise of the attorney you seek the matrix is petty and offended because you don't need the attorney they want you to hire. Useless, unprofessional, hostile to inquiry and no support.

I asked a question about suing a Law Firm for Malpractice & Negligence. I never got a reply! Total radio silence. Which exemplifies that lawyers protect other lawyers when it comes to wrong doing. Enough said.

Read the (real) reviews on here, not the fake paid 5-star reviews. AVVO is a horrible place to seek unofficial legal advice and find an attorney. Most of the attorneys on there are just lawyers who don’t even practice law anymore. The lawyers on there are rude & unprofessional and AVVO them to remove & censor their own reviews. Save yourself the headache and just contact the bar directory in your state. My personal experience was with one specific attorney, J. Scott Scarbrough of Loveland, CO was absolutely horrible for no reason at all… but he is also infamous for reporting & scrubbing his reviews. And AVVO allows it?! Yet another red flag about this site, so just avoid AVVO at all cost.

I posted a question and I got one lawyer who responded. This lawyer was rude, unprofessional and started making fun of me and my situation. He never even actually answered my question it was nothing but tirade after tirade from him. I corrected him and put him in his place. He was so humiliated that he made a false claim of trolling to the sight to have my questions taken down. Well the question is back up and I humiliated someone with a law decree. If you need a question answered I would go somewhere else.

Avvo is a SCAM. A while ago, I posted a neg. review about an attorney who didn't do his job, and Avvo removed it.
Now, i am trying to post a review about an attorney who scammed me good - Avvo refuses to p[ost it stating it's my second, duplicate review - which is a lie, yesterday was the first time ever I submitted a review for him. That attorney called me yesterday and threatened me with a "defamation suit" and said he will post that I am mentally sick.
Out of more than a dozen attorneys only two (partners) are good people. Others scammed me and threatened me.
The whole corrupt system needs to be taken down and re-built. Including Avvo

scam site. intentionally kept denying my review simply because they want to protect the individuals listed on their site rather than post honest reviews

do not believe the reviews on avvo. they only approve ones that are positive which means you never know the truth.

You can not trust lawyer ratings! Avvo deletes negative reviews for lawyers because the lawyers pay for this service. Very dishonest. Look at the lawyers’ real ratings on any & all other websites but Avvo can not be trusted. Learning this lesson cost me at least a hundred thousand dollars. My “5 star rated lawyer” on Avvo was absolutely incompetent. Should have fired her. After my disastrous experience, my negative review was removed 3 times by Avvo! Watched Avvo remove other people’s negative reviews as well. Avvo is not even trying to provide true experiences of clients with the lawyers they hire. Do not waste your time and end up paying a very high price. Found plenty of other people with an awful experience with this lawyer but all hidden by Avvo but available elsewhere. Massive regret.

AVVO is not to be trusted and is a total waste of time. I asked a question about a trademark, and ended up with lawyers questioning my product authenticity. Who asked you about that? All I wanted to confirm if my First Amendment Rights are violated, and got this in return! Yes it is authentic. AVVO is useless, you'll get far better results with Google search. I do not recommend AVVO to anyone, and will not set my foot on their site anymore. Stay away from AVVO!

0/5 if possible. Allows abusive and threatening comments with no safety protocol. No fact checking that the poster is an actual client. Makes attorneys who are not members PAY MONEY to even respond to their reviews. A method to bilk money from attorneys, plain and simple. Impossible to reach customer service or any resolution.

I left a negative review of a smarmy garbage attorney who lied and stole from me, Drew Daddono of Tampa, FL, and apparently he had it erased.

Don't waste your time asking questions because they remove them. I asked a question, honestly based off of a court show for personal information, which was removed. To have a question removed after spending a lot of time properly articulating it was clearly a waste of my time

Did not post a 1 star complaint in date order but buried in. Did not even post 1 star for him. Inaccurate site reviews. Don't waste your time

Wow… talk about lack of good legal services in America… well anyways seems like lawyers don’t care about these reviews… and the people who own the platform? What are they doing to make this platform better? Probably nothing… anyways, a lawyer referred me to Avvo… failure to find a business litigator on here… especially on contingency… litigation lawyers wants to charge you an arm & a leg before even doing anything with it and then what’s the chance of them actually doing what needs to be done ? Who knows since lawyers can be shady. Anyways i really don’t know what the law schools are even teaching these law students nowadays.. 👎

Don't use Avvo! I tried to post a legitimate NEGATIVE review about an incompetent attorney who cost me over $8000 and they wouldn't allow it. I even have a current case with the IARDC with proof docs. I even changed the review 3 times and riddled it down to ONE sentence and they still wouldn't let it fly. Literally "Don't use this Lawfirm they are incompetent" . But then I found out Avvo offers paid review accounts to attorneys and they are also ran by 'attorneys'. So obviously, all the reviews you are seeing on Avvo there are all FAKE! Especially the ones for my former attorney which I will be posting a review for, here, as well.

Garbage website AI Attorneys do not even respond to you for the exact service they offer. I contacted 4 attorneys none of them respond the website doesn’t respond either fake reviews.

ABSOLUTE JOKE.THEY WILL NOT POST ANY HONEST NEGATIVE REVIEWS. ITS A SCAM WEBSITE DESIGNED FOR LAWYERS BY LAWYERS. IT IS NOT AN HONEST SITE FOR REVIEWING ATTORNEYS. IF THEY REFUSE TO POST HONEST, FACTUAL, PROOF SUPPORTED NEGATIVE REVIEWS, THEN YOU CAN BE SURE THAT THE POSITIVE ONES ARE ALL FAKE, MOST LIKELY ATTORNEYS RATING THEMSELVES. AVVO HAS AN "F" RATING WITH THE BBB ALSO
