UNBELIEVABLE!!! EASY TO SEE WHY "F" RATED! THIS IS "AVVO LAWYER REFERRAL"! WHAT AN OUTRIGHT PILE IF CRAP! I WROTE A REVIEW AGAINST A LAWYER. AVVO ASK, "WAS THIS JUST A CONSULTATION OR DID YOU HIRE THIS ATTORNEY". CONSULTED. THE LENGTHY REVIEW HAD 1 CUSS ****, DOG "SHIT"! BECAUSE THAT IS THE **** THE LAWYER USED! REVIEW REJECTED! CHANGE TO "POOP"! REJECTED, STATING I ACCUSED LAWYER OF CRIMINAL ACTIVITY OR UNETHICAL BEHAVIOR WITHOUT PROVIDING FACTUAL DETAILS! ABSOLUTE LIE! NEXT REJECTION "BECAUSE I "DID NOT HIRE LAWYER"! SERIOUSLY???I HAD ANOTHER LAWYER REVIEW LAST YEAR THAT I DIDN'T EVEN GET TO CONTACT AND THAT REVIEW PASSED! AVVO IS A MARKETING COMPANY THAT GETS PAID BY THOSE LAWYERS AND AVVO IS USING DECEPTIVE AND UNETHICAL PRACTICES TO MANIPULATE THE RATINGS OF LAWYERS THAT PAY THEM. THEY ARE DOING EVERYTHING TO REJECT NEGATIVE REVIEWS. IF YOU SEE A LAWYER WITH 10 REVIEWS AND ONLY 1 IS NEGATIVE,,, YOU CAN BET OTHER 1 STAR REVIEWS WERE SIMPLY REJECTED. TELL ME, IF YOU WROTE A NEGATIVE REVIEW AND IT WAS REJECTED FOR A BOGUS REASON, HOW MANY REWRITES BEFORE YOU GIVE UP? AVVO IS "F" RATED AND UNAFFILIATED WITH THE BBB! ******* COMPANIES DON'T CARE WHAT THE BBB SAYS! THE BBB HAS NO LEGAL POWER WHATSOEVER! NEVERTHELESS, AVVO SHOULD NOT BE TRUSTED! SO MANY OF THE FEW NEGATIVE REVIEWS ABOUT THE AVVO PAID FOR SPONSERED LAWYERS SAY THE SAME THING ABOUT LAWYERS GETTING PAID AND NOT DOING THE *** THEY WERE BEING PAID TO DO THUS COSTING THE CLIENTS MORE MONEY!! WHAT AN OUTRAGEOUS BUSINESS PRACTICE! IT IS COMPANIES LIKE AVVO AND THEIR DECEITFUL PRACTICES THAT ARE FALSELY MISLEADING THE OVERALL PUBLIC PERCEPTION!!! AVVO SHOULD BE SHUT DOWN! THEIR PRACTICES SHOULD NEVER BE GIVEN A PLATFORMReview from Gigi R

Do NOT HIRE A LAWYER FROM HERE. PLEASE DO YOUR DUE DILIGENCE and research the person. I found a really nasty lawyer who has a history of being demeaning on AVVO. I also found misconduct violations for him on the State attorneys office. AVVO is reporting NO VIOLATIONS. This is not only not accurate but highly misleading to people trying to find a Decent lawyer. I asked them to rectify this and provided proof. I think there needs to be a class action against them. Or one lawyer willing to go against them.Review from Eric W

I didnt want to leave a star but had to ************ does not support freedom of speech or protect the First Amendment. Avvo is picky what is asked, and if an attorney responds calling you a 10 year old, and you flag it, AVVO terminates your question. It appears you cant leave a real rating for attorneys, as AVVO tells the attorney and if the attorney does not like it, Avvo will remove it. AVVO supports Attorneys who have nothing better to do than look at new comments and leave lame comments or good ones. My main concern is how AVVO retaliates and when ****** off at ya, they remove stuff you posted or comments or some of your ratings.They deleted many of my questions to be posted and reviews out of retaliation. On 9 26 2023 and other times.AVVO even terminated one of my old accounts for an unjust reason. That was because I told them anything I write on AVVO is copywriter protected because I do not give them permission to make money off my comments or writings. Then they reply that I read the big long notice before I pushed ok. These businesses write a huge long rules and stuff that no one reads. You dont sign anything, they dont tell you nothing but when you push the okay button, they assumed you read it and agree to it. The only thing I agreed to was opening the next screen so I could get on and ask questions. As for attorneys listed on AVVO, I have not found one that is honest, three who ripped me off and a lot of attorneys really are so dishonest it makes the justice system unjustified and WE THE PEOPLE should go back to the western days where we carry and then its okay to notify an armed person to a challenge and boom .... the argument is over. I should have the right to post reviews on AVVO anyway I want. This would allow people who have had an attorney on AVVO make a truthful comment. Angry or not. We should have the right to state how we feel for others to see and decide there on, if the attorney did a good job or not.Review from Cameron N

They don't let you leave reviews if they don't agree with it. Even if you paid and retained the attorney. That is not freedom of speech at all.Review from Lana P

Avvo incorrectly claimed it could legally charge me outside the contract period lapsed over 3 years after the contract expired, and over six months after raising the contract price, and even after I had changed my credit card and somehow they obtained it through **** without my knowledge or consent and continued to bill me!The credit card company is contesting these charges and Avvo has not responded to my demand to produce: 1) any written agreement between Avvo and myself for the increased contract amount 2) any written authorization from me allowing them to access my new credit card information. Avvo claims under a 2019 contract, ******************************************************************************************************************************************************************* when it creased my costs 6 months ago. In my State, where there is no mutual agreement to enter into a new contract modifying a previous contract, there is no new contract and, thus, no modification; therefore, Avvo breached its agreement and should pay damages and had no authority to use my likeness expecting any benefit. Quality Prods. & ************ ************** **************** 469 Mich. 362, 364, 666 N.W.2d 251, 253, (Mich ****)Review from Jay M

Called 7-8 times times to increase my charges, *********** to your billing locked with your account rep. Ive been charged over 400, 4 months in a row, against my will, and I cant get the charges to stop. No one calls back, there is no way to call anyone, and all of a sudden my account rep is me her time is to valuable and she wont be bullied? Quit maliciously charging my accountId give them a 0 starts if it was available.Review from Natasha N

AVVO SHOWS PREJUDICE AGAINST REVIEWERS, NO MATTER IF YOUR REVIEW IS FACTUAL OR NOT THEY WILL DECLINE. EVEN AFTER SHOWING THE DOCUMENT THAT THE ATTORNEY AGREED TO TERMINATE AND WAIVE ALL MY FEES DUE TO HIS BEHAVIOR, THEY STILL SAID THE REVIEW WAS DENIED. I DID NOT CURSE OR ANYTHING ELSE, I TOLD EXACTLY WHAT HAPPENED, SO THEY WANT YOU TO LIE IN ORDER TO POST A REVIEW, AND GEE WIZ TO MY SURPRISE THERE ARE ONLY POSITIVE REVIEWS POSTED, IF I CAN FIND AN ATTORNEY TO TRY THIS MATTER I WILL. AVVO IS MISLEADING BECAUSE IF THE PUBLIC CAN NOT GIVE A FACTUAL ASSESSMENT TO HELP OTHERS, THEY ARE JUST AS UNETHICAL AS THE BEHAVIOR OF SOME OF THE ATTORNEYS/LAWYERS.AVVO NEEDS TO BE SHUT DOWN.Review from Ally L.

Made an account on AVVO website and asked my question. It asks for the state you live in so you get a lawyer who knows the law in the state you provide. Some lawyer from California sent me nasty gram. I live in *******. My question is flagged. He answered that I am not his client, and my question was fully answered days ago. That really confused me. I never emailed this man personally and he threatened me that a bad review would not stay on the website. Very scary experience. Do not trust this lawyer with my info. I am very intimidated since I expected someone from ******* to respond to my question. This lawyer is very threatening. Please save yourself precious time and piece of mind, do not use this website.
