Excellent Attorney

I contacted Paula with some questions about foreign investor issues in real estate. Paula answered each one of my questions and more. She made me feel that she cared about my specific case and not just treated me like another case number. I will definitely use her for any future needs.

Immigration Attorney, the best

Unable to find an immigration that could satisfactorily answer our questions I finally found Attorney Paula Montoya who answered all of them. We hired her to obtain our permanent green cards and are thrilled to have found her. We have since done estate planning with her as well. My wife and I woul...d recommend the Jackson Montoya Law Firm to everyone.

Avvo Rating

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.
