A very wise decision

Running a business is not without headaches so I ran into a disgruntled employee situation. The claim was frivolous but done with malice. Mr. Sotomayor represented us in a very prompt and thorough way and was able to settle the issue without the usual long drawn drama. His fees were very reasonable a...nd the closure was in our favor.

Excellent lawyer and person.

Christian is my immigration lawyer. He is very responsible, approachable and knowledgeable. I like his honesty and humility. He is a phone call away, and every time I call him, he is very patient and listen carefully to my concern, and he keeps me inform of any change or progress in my immigration pr...ocess.

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

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.
