she won the difficult case

I am really happy with the way Angelica represented me in my trust litigation. She took control of my case, and developed strong and creative action plans with me, to accomplish my goals. I was impressed with how fierce she was with the opposing counsel when she needed to be. I also deeply appreci...ate that she carefully answered my questions, took time to explain legal papers to me in detail, and made me feel comfortable throughout the representation.

Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

"Angelica is a relentless advocate for her clients in the field of estate litigation. All too often beneficiaries are having to deal with the passing of their loved ones, only to find out another family member or interloper has absconded with estate assets. Angelica both knows what questions to ask, and how to answer those questions. A wealth of knowledge."

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.
