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.

Stay Away

He was very unprofessional. He missed most of the appointments that were scheduled with me. At this point I should have taken this as a sign and turned away but decided to give him another chance. When he rescheduled he made me wait for hours at his office to see him. He regards himself as a good law...yer but I assure you he is not, he was intimidated by the opposing side's attorney several times. I was never able to reach him and the case was mostly handled by his assistants, which he treats very bad, know close to nothing about law and are not very helpful. Did not address any of the concerns I had and gave me no assurances during my stressful court battle. He did not respond to any of the emails I sent him. I do not know how people can do business like this. I deeply regret hiring him to handle my case. Your time and money is better spent elsewhere.

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!

Exceeds Expectations

Attorney Carlos Muniz represented me during 2 very difficult family court cases (child support and visitation). He placed so much confidence and assurance in both my cases that I would have him represent me and my children again. He return every email, phone call, and gave me complete guidance to und...erstand how he would represent us during that diffucult time. He guided me through all my fear and doubt. With God by our side, Carlos did an outstanding and honest job.

The worst lawyer

I was Carlos Muñiz's client in 2013. This has been the worst experience of my life. A real hell. The worst lawyer. I do not recommend it.
