Labor

After finding myself in a perplexing situation with the Dept. Of Labor; I started screening for labor council. After a few consultations, I started to feel discouraged. Finally, a friend recommended Mr. Ortega and his firm. I will say, there is a silver lining to every cloud. Mr. Ortega and his p...artner, Howard Tanner, prioritized my tasks and spent greatest allocations of time to secure what was in my benefit. They handled my case with personal attention and went the extra mile to make sure all my emotional needs were met as well. I, HIGHLY, recommend Mr. Ortega, as he is honest, straight forward, and will fight your battle, relentlessly, to make sure you are not being taken advantage of.

Auto Accident

I was involved in a terrible car accident and Hugo assisted me with my case. He is very kind and patient and helped me through a very difficult time. Hugo explained everything to me and what the process would be. I am very happy with the outcome and my choice of attorney.

  • 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.
