We started Avvo to empower consumers to handle their legal matters with confidence by providing more information and better guidance then they've ever had access to before.
Avvo is a free website that offers ratings and profiles for every lawyer, as well as client reviews, peer reviews and attorney disciplinary records.
Avvo also offers a free Question and Answer forum where people can ask real attorneys - anonymously if desired - any legal question and receive a personalized answer. And Avvo's Legal Guides are lawyer-generated articles that enable consumers to research their legal issues on their own.
We also started Avvo to help lawyers set themselves apart from other lawyers and attract new clients. I am a 17-year lawyer who understands firsthand how much competitive noise is out there when a lawyer attempts to market his or her practice.
