Awesome Lawyer!!!

From the beginning to the end Armando answered all my questions and made my though times much easier. He is very detailed, compassionate, and professional. I would highly recommend his services.

Excellent Attorney

Armando really showed compassion and care for my case. He didn't always tell me what I wanted to hear but what I needed to hear to help my case and family the best most logical way. He was extremely professional and understanding all the while fighting for what was needed throughout the case. I perso...nally feel that you have to be comfortable with the person who you have fighting for you and we definitely trusted in him to fight for us. We highly recommend Armando Horta as an attorney.

Unfortunately, I am not sure this is a legitimate review and it appears that this review was left by the same individual that left the review below. Nonetheless, I invite you to contact me to discuss any issues you may have so that I can address them. Thank you.

Would give zero if I could

Not only did he ignore important information about my case, he lost spectacularly, stayed up till 3am and bragged to court officials about it instead of prepping, talked down to me (he's younger) as if he's my father, told me way too much about his family life and issues, and overinflated his bil...l while also not showing a tiny bit of work. Hire this guy if you like inexperienced, arrogant guys who don't know how to admit when they're wrong.

Fortunately, this client’s statements are not correct. My clients know that I strive to do the best for them and do right by them. I am certain that many of my clients, past and present, would disagree with these comments and would attest that I do not compromise my values or the best interests of my clients and I will not do so as that would sacrifice the quality of the legal services I have provided and continue to provide to my many satisfied clients. I am sorry that this client was dissatisfied with my services, however, I wish this client the best with their legal matter.

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.
