As a prosecutor I ensured the safety of the People by upholding the Constitution. As a private attorney I focus on defending and upholding the Constitution as to every citizen accused of a crime, presumed innocent, and entitled to the highest degree of advocacy. Every criminal case presents unique legal issues and must be engaged with independent and analytical thought. Your case will be handled with personal care and with the skill necessary to property and efficiently protect you.

Posted by Bill R | March 24, 2016 | Hired Attorney | Criminal Defense

Teo Siguenza goes above and beyond

My son got into some trouble that could have negatively impacted his future. I hired Teo on the advice of my brother in law, a successful attorney himself. From our initial consultation I knew we were in good hands. Teo not only knows his stuff, he knows the right people in the right places. M...y son had his night in court last night and it was evident that it was not a warm and fuzzy place. The people that preceded my son were met with some harsh penalties. When it was my sons turn to approach the bench we were amazed that his case had been dismissed, no ACD , dismissed. My son screwed up and I hope learned a lesson. Teo did a great job of counseling my son on how bad judgement can mess up your future. He got through to my son and I'm hopeful we won't get in trouble again. Teo ultimately got my son a fresh start, a new chance, and our family is very thankful. I can't recommend Teo any more strongly.

Criminal defense lawyer | Apr 27

Relationship: Worked for lawyer

"I endorse this lawyer. I sat second-chair to Mr. Siguenza on a criminal possession of a weapon charge, Mr. Siguenza artfully picked apart the prosecution's case. The jury returned a verdict of not guilty and members of the jury complimented Mr. Siguenza on his performance. Siguenza brings the same passion and personal service to every one of his matters."

Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

"I have sent several of my clients to Teo who have had criminal matters needing attention. Teo was able to navigate the various procedural issues, fully investigate the factual assertions, and only then seek a resolution that greatly benefited the client. I feel confident sending my clients to him for representation, and will continue to do so."
