Excellent Attorney

I contacted Mr Santiago to help with my divorce. My ex had moved to Puerto Rico , I was in California . After wasting thousands on incompetent California lawyers and my ex denying he was served by mail , I was fortunate to find Mr Santiago . He gave me a very reasonable fee upfront and handled my ca...se efficiently and quickly. I highly recommend him in matters of divorce , child custody and any area of law that he advertises. Thank you again for helping me end this nightmare and start new again !

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
