Great experience

I had such a great experience with Lizzette. I’ve never dealt with lawyers in the past, I had 0 idea what to do after my accident. She was extremely patient and thorough going over all my questions and concerns. My case started before the Covid outbreak and throughout those long years when things wer...e happening fast, she still made it a point to stay in contact. She truly fights for you and goes above and beyond to make sure you are informed and content with this process, which can be very overwhelming. Everything went as smoothly as it could, highly recommend!

Great Lawyer

I hired Lizzette Adeli Muñiz to represent me in my broken ankle lawsuit . Ms Muñiz gave clear and helpful information on what I needed to do to advance my case. She was steadfast in pursuing my case though the various depositions we went through together in order to get the best settlement for my cas...e . She never dropped the ball while representing me and I received an excellent settlement. I have been recommending her to my friends.

Wonderful experience

Lizzette was referred to me by a member of my family after i explained to them the situation of the car accident I was in, their exact words were "I know the perfect person for you" and that statement hit the nail on the head. From the first phone conversation Lizzette helped provide clarity to the s...ituation while giving me a sense of comfort. I met up with and hired her right away. Throughout the whole process she kept the same energy and made sure the direction that we went was the best direction for me. She made sure i well understood every thing and every option that was available. I would recommend her without a question if anyone close to me needed a lawyer.

Amazing Attorney Who Advocates and Achieves!

Working with Lizzette was a unique experience for me in regards to the legal world. She looked out for me every single step of the way, advocated on my behalf and was always looking for outcomes that were in my best interest. In the past in dealing with legal matters, the process stressed me out. Liz...zette made the process as stress free as possible. Throughout the process she was able to advise me and kept me in the loop continuously. In the end, Lizzette achieved an outcome that best suited the unfortunate situation I had been in and stood up for my rights and obtained compensation for the hardship as a result of that situation. She is an absolute pleasure to work with and is an exceptional lawyer and person.

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.
