CANT WIN WITH HIM
After numerous attempts to contact him, this guy never responded back. After a couple months I fired him and hired an attorney who was willing to communicate with her client and actually investigated my case. Silva put absolutely no effort into my defense.

"Mr. Silva is a fantastic lawyer in the area of consumer protection. The foundation of his practice is customer service and client relations.

On top of that, Mr. Silva is incredibly passionate about the rights of his clients. Whether they've been foreclosed, taken advantage of by a local or national business, or have drawn the short end of the stick in a business dealing, Mr. Silva does his all to make things right."
"I can emphatically recommend the services of Mr. Silva after working with him for over two years. His enthusiasm for finding solutions for his clients allows him to offer comprehensive and caring legal services."
