Ms. Bonilla, Esq. is a True Pro

I used Ms. Bonilla's services in an ESP case in Hudson County. Ms. Bonilla, Esq. is a true pro in every sense of the word. I had to try to settle a case with warring spouses, and a tough adversary. Ms. Bonilla, Esq. did the impossible and she assisted all parties to reach a deal. Consequently, the pa...rties were able to save thousands of dollars in more legal fees. In summary, Ms. Bonilla, Esq. is a true legal genius and she has the right enthusiastic demeanor to help you in your divorce case. I have been a lawyer for 23 years, and rarely do I see ESP Panelists go to such extremes to help the parties settle their cases. She is a true pro and she emphasizes working out PSA's that work for the entire family.

Permenantly Stored Contact

I selected Mrs. Bonilla through the referral process offered by the Hudson County Bar Association. Of the names provided, I thank God for making the right decision. Mrs. Bonilla was straightforward, honest, compassionate, and very adept in her craft. It was a long, tough battle and Mrs. Bonilla pe...rformed an exemplary job inside and outside of the courtroom. I enjoyed working with her and her staff. It has been two years since I have used her services; and I do not regret the time and money used during that period of my life. I highly recommend Mrs. Bonilla to anyone seeking her services.

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.
