The best defense is a strong defense

I would like to start this review by saying that not only was Geannina, a diligent attorney but a kind human being that took personally the wrong that my insurance company was doing to me. She left no room for doubt as to why my appeal should be accepted, every document, medical request, and personal... information she request was a building block that assured me i was in the right hands and that my appeal or case was in the right hands, and i was right. hers is a brilliant legal mind that i recommend hole hardheartedly. I'll end this by expressing my humble appreciation for incredible work and that of her team. thank you.

Nina is very knowledgeable and honest. The first time I talked with her I knew she was going to be the lawyer I chose to represent me. She was compassionate and caring. She always returned my emails or phone calls promptly. I would highly recommend Nina and Dabdoub Law Firm everyone was professional ...and nice. Thank you Nina

Professionalism at it's Best!

I needed professional last minute guidance on my case and my lawyer was called away to family business so he assigned Geannina (Nina), to assist me. Nina not only provided the answers to my many questions but also provided something more important to me, a human, caring element that is very difficult... to find. I wholeheartedly recommend Nina as a high caliber professional lawyer and would not hesitate to enlist her help in the future.

My experience with Geannina Burgos

I believe in giving credit where credit is due. Through out my career I have dealt with several people in many different position. I would just like to say that my experience with Nina (Geannina Burgos), her assistant Sonya Myers, and the entire group at Dabdoub Law Firm was by far the best experienc...e that I have ever had when dealing with a Law Firm. Nina was very professional and very patient even when I wasn't. I was going through a very stressful situation and I received emails and phone contact from Nina after hours and I never asked her a question that she couldn't answer. Her assistant Sonya is amazing as well and they both are passionate about their position. I would hire them again and I would recommend them to anyone that requires a law firm that specializes in these types of issues. I can't say enough good things about this law firm but I'll cut it off here. Thanks again for your hard work, understanding, patience, and dedication to your clients.

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.
