Best Family Court lawyer in town!

Extremely pleased with Mr. Muniz representation, guidance and work. If you need a lawyer that will defend you until the very end, will clearly explain your options, will guide you on your decisions and fight for it this is the law office you need. Professional, straight forward, knowledgeable and pas...sionate. Him and his team will make the difference on your case like they did on mine. Impeccable work on the court room prepared for every possible outcome we could get. Words can not express my gratitude for his and his amazing team representation and guidance.

Avoid this character.

Not a good person. The amount of lies that comes out of this man's mouth is unbelievable. His consultations are free which is great. So I thought. He does this to lure you in, and to find out how much money you have and to see how much he can get out of you. Then he proceeds to sell you the dream. He... takes your retainer and then good luck getting a hold of him. His fees are extremely low for someone that has been practicing law for over 20 years. I know why now. He overbills you for everything. When you take the over billing and numerous delays you will encounter with this clown. He actually comes out to over $500 an hour. He's ok in the courtroom. But what typically should take one day in the courtroom. He will take two to three days or even more depending on how long it takes the judge to stop him. He will drag it out as long as you have money to pay him. Expect to hear from Mr. Muniz, your money is almost gone. I will need another $3000 to $5000 to continue your case. He reminds me of Joe Pesci. Little, aggressive, chubby dude with a huge ego. Biggest napoleon complex I have ever seen on someone so small. This guy even has a samurai sword in his office. I guess it's suppose to intimidate you or something. He is decent in the courtroom. But he is not the most intelligent person despite how confident he comes off. He will win your case if you go up against a subpar attorney. He will not win against a good lawyer due to his lack of intelligence. If you have or do hire Mr. Pesci. Please document the hours and minutes. Watch out for delays. Get on him for dragging on the court proceedings. At the end. It adds up to thousands of dollars.

Who you need for family law defense

Years ago I interviewed a number of lawyers for a friend for a difficult family law case. All the ones I met were very nice but none were as confident, assertive, and knowledgeable as Carlos Muniz so I hired him and he won that case. Fast forward some years I needed a family law lawyer for myself & i...t was no question in my mind who I would hire. I presented Mr Muñiz with a difficult case against a well-known excellent attorney that my opponent paid top dollar for. It's been a long battle but I'm happy to say he prevailed once again. He was well prepared with all the facts & did an amazing job presenting them in the court room. He was assertive in my defense, as well as passionate about a job well done & justice being served which led to a judge ruling in my favor. Throughout this drawn out process Mr Muñiz was always available for me, his staff was always very helpful, and if he wasn't immediately available he always got back to me as soon as he could. I hear many people saying they wait around to hear back from their lawyers & have a hard time communicating with them but that's never been the case with Mr Muñiz and I value that very much. He was patient to answer my many questions every time I had them. I highly recommend him if you need a family law lawyer. No one wants to have to pay a lawyer but when u need a lawyer u want to get your money's worth & I certainly did. While no lawyer can guarantee u they will win a case, having seen before how he works, I was confident that if anyone could win my case it would be Mr Muñiz. Once again he did not disappoint.

Professionalble, and experienced attorney.

I was seeking an honest, caring and an experienced attorney that would take care of my difficult child support case. Finally, I came across a friend who recommended Mr. Muniz. After my free counsultation I knew that finally I found the right person to represent me... Within six weeks my case was r...esolved without any obstacles that Carlos didn't take care off!!! I highly recommend Carlos Muniz as an exceptional and professional attorney!
