Great innovative company founded by… Great innovative company founded by Mark Britton, formerly of Expedia. When Avvo came out is was no darling of lawyers.n fact many sued Avvo contesting bad reviews. Most if not all lost.Some of those same lawyers are complaining at this site. I Unlike Google, Avvo does actively police for fake reviews and will remove those. Avvo was sold last year. Whether the new owners live up to Mr. Britton's vision is yet to be determined.

I wish I could give them zero starts for attorney marketing service I'm an attorney and was suckered into advertising/marketing with Avvo. To date, I have received exactly zero leads or return on the investment. I have contacted multiple people with Avvo including but not limited to my account rep and have received nothing but silence. You might as well flush your money down the toilet because it will be less frustrating and equally as profitable as advertising or marketing with Avvo / Nolo / Martindale.

AVVO IS PAID ADVERTISING FOR LAWYERS & SUPPORTS LAWYERS BY MANIPULATING REVIEWS I needed to discuss a situation involving protecting my 91y.o. mother who suffers from Dementia. The lawyer uses avvo marketing services. Long story short on the lawyer,,, she basically called me a liar, told me I should just let her apartment complex allow their employees to break their own rules and local, state, & federal laws. I write a review & used a word the lawyer used,,, she said I should just put up with the dog S_ _ T! AVVO REJECTED BECAUSE THE "S" WORD. I CHANGE IT TO POOP. AVVO REJECTS IT NOW BECAUSE I DID NOT ACTUALLY HIRE THE LAWYER,,, AVVO ASKS WHEN LEAVING A REVIEW "WAS THIS A CONSULTATION OR DID I HIRE THE LAWYER... I STATED CONSULTATION. LAST YEAR I CONTACTED A LAWYER THAT SAID RESPONDS TO CALLS BUT BEST TO EMAILS IN 24 HOURS. I CALL A COUPLE OF TIMES NEVER HEARD FROM HIM. I SEND AN EMAIL AND GOT A GENERIC REPLY ABOUT THEY RECEIVED MY EMAIL,,, NEVER HEARD BACK, SEND ANOTHER EMAIL,,, STILL NEVER CONTACTED ME SO I LEFT NEGATIVE REVIEW AND AVVO POSTED IT. 1ST THING I SAID IN THAT REVIEW WAS "I CAN'T REVIEW THE LAWYER DIRECTLY BECAUSE HE NEVER RETURNED ANY CALLS OR MESSAGES EXCEPT THE ONE SAYING THEY RECEIVED MY EMAIL AND WILL GET BACK WITH ME. AVVO REJECTED THIS CURRENT REVIEW A 3RD TIME STATING I MADE COMMENTS ABOUT THE LAWYER BEING UNETHICAL,,, NOT EVEN SURE WHAT PART OF THE REVIEW POINTED OUT WHATEVER MAY BE UNETHICAL, BUT,,, WHEN YOU CONTACT A LAWYER TO GET ASSISTANCE PROTECTING YOUR 91Y.O. MOTHER SUFFERING FROM DEMENTIA OR ANY DISABILITY AND YOU POINT OUT THEM BREAKING RULES AND LAWS LIKE JUST PUT UP WITH STEPPING IN THE POOP THE MANAGER'S DOG IS NOT GETTING PICKED UP,, OR THEM LYING TO THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT AND WESHOUKD JUST "PUT UP WITH IT"!!! SOUNDS PERHAPS UNETHICAL,, ALTHOUGH I NEVER USED THST WORD IN MY REVIEW! AVVO IS A MARKETING COMPANY FOR LAWYERS. LAWYERS PAY THEM MONEY TO BE LISTED ON AVVO'S SITE. AND AVVO WILL DO WHATEVER OR SAY WHATEVER TO ELIMINATE AS MANY NEGATIVE REVIEWS AS POSSIBLE...AVVO IS "F" RATED WITH THE BBB. HERE ON TRUSTPILOT THEY HAVE LESS THAN 2 STARS WHICH IN ITSELF IS MISLEADING...BECAUSE YOU CAN NOT LEAVE "0" STARS. SO IF EVERYONE GAVE THEM A "1" STAR RATING/REVIEW... IT WOULD LOOK AS IF THEY WERE 20% OK WHEN REALISTICALLY THEY WOULD BE "0%".

Really disappointed with this website Really disappointed with this website. I asked an immigration question.. 2 “attorneys” replied and they were so patronising and rude. When I pointed out to one how rude they were (one of them had made some incorrect assumptions- sadly avvo only gives you a certain amount of characters to write), they deleted my question. When I googled the attorneys, neither had a website, and one had gone to a really dubious college. Not recommended

Avvo is not trustworthy. Beware Do not trust Avvo reviews. My honest review about an attorney is not approved. This very same attorney will keeps deceiving people in need. Avvo should be held responsible for that. They only approve good reviews. This site is not trustworthy -> Community guideline is “do not post bad reviews on a lawyer who pays us money “?
