The best around town

I have been working with Lizzette Muniz since October 2022 . She took on my personal injury substained from a car accident, she was referred by my PT. Since day one Lizzette has helped me every step of the way, and she is always honest with steps and procedures regarding my case. I was never out of ...the loop and didnt have to follow up or wonder about my case because I was always informed by her and her office on steps during this process. I respect her work and I am truly thank I had her as my lawyer. I definitely recommend Lizzette to any and everyone because she is not like any lawyer, she genuinely cares and she will work endlessly to assure her client is happy and earns the best results possible. Thank you again Lizzette for all your hardwork.

Very satisfied. 10/10

I can’t express enough how grateful I am of having such an amazing lawyer work on my case. She was very professional, patient, and organized. She communicated clearly with me and included me in everything every step of the way. Alway had direct contact with her if there were any changes made to my ca...se. Loved my experience. Highly recommended, 10/10.

Highly recommend - super responsive and knowledgeable!

I hired Lizzette to represent me after my accident because she was extremely clear, set realistic expectations, and walked me through each step over the course of 19 months. I felt like I could trust her after meeting with her and she proved me right. Any time I asked questions, she followed up right... away and prepared me for each step. Highly recommend!!

Very appreciative.

I came to Lizzette in March,2018 I believe after a uber I was in got rear-ended.She fought hard to get my settlement even after the insurance company filed for bankruptcy. I think a lot of clients give up when they hear that the insurance company filed for bankruptcy and this could let them know that... they can still recover for their injuries. It took some time some very long time (covid)as well but it all worked out and I got my settlement. There was never one minute she didn’t inform me or kept me in the loop about what was going on through all the weeks months and years. Very well mannered and overall great person! I would recommend.

Excellent Lawyer!

Lizzette Muniz is an excellent lawyer. She took an my accident case and was successful in the end. Miss Muniz is a knowledgeable lawyer, who is consistent with her work. Over the three years it took to settle my case, she always kept me informed and made sure she was available to address my questi...ons and concerns. I would recommend her to anyone, she is a persistent lawyer with great negotiation skill.

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.
