Mr

My case was in Washington county, Hector was right to the point, he earned the judge’s respect, after the case ended the judge complimented him and told me that I got myself one of the top lawyers, the judge told Hector that he wishes to see him more often in his courtroom. It was my first time to he...ar a judge compliment and recognizes a lawyer’s good work. Great job Hector.

Review for Hector Oropeza Law Firm

I can’t say enough about Hector Oropeza!! I selected Hector while searching for a criminal lawyer for a DWI. I’m so thankful that my prayers guided me to this lawyer. I’d never been in legal trouble before and I was very anxious and overwhelmed with worry. Hector’s knowledge, sincere concern a...nd professionalism brought me through this trial in my life and ultimately achieved the best outcome possible for my situation. I was always able to reach him anytime I had questions and/or simply needed reassurance. His knowledge of the law along with his calm demeanor and honest approach make him the right choice for anyone hoping to achieve a favorable outcome in court. Thanks Hector!! I’ll never forget the fantastic job you did for me.

Thankful for Hector's Expertise, Guidance, and Empathy

Hector helped me get through a divorce in a manner that was, legally and administratively speaking, relatively quick and painless. Without his assistance things likely would have turned out worse, and I would have gone through much more stress. I appreciated his empathy and guidance on how to smar...tly and effectively approach negotiating settlement terms with my husband, allowing us to avoid arguing in court, ultimately saving us time, stress, and money. Due to circumstances on my part, I had to work with Hector remotely, over the phone and via email, but Hector still managed to provide me with personalized service and demonstrated that he cared about me as his client. I am grateful to Hector and would definitely recommend hiring him.

Professional and Fantastic

In my DUI case, Hector handled it better than I could have hoped for. He worked out convenient and affordable payment, demonstrated proficient knowledge both in and out of the courtroom, and worked with me in handling all aspects of the case all along the way. I am very pleased with his professional ...and understanding service.

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.
