Very Competent and Friendly, Definitely Recommend!

Working with her was a pleasure. She is very personable and extremely knowledgeable. She handled my bankruptcy case and I'm very glad that she did. Excellent attorney!

Highly recommend

I have used Carmen Soto a few different times. I was so pleased with the way she handled both my cases. She handled one case for me personally and one case for my business. She explained things to me and kept me updated as to how my cases were progressing. I felt like she really knew how the lega...l system worked. I would definitely use her again without question.

Excellent Attorney

Carmen Soto is handling my divorce now. She is so refreshingly honest and I love how she really listens. I am happy that a friend of mine recommended her. So far my case is progressing faster than I thought and she has returned all my calls. She has explained the process because it was a little c...onfusing for me. I spoke with two other attorneys before I decided on Carmen Soto. I know I made the right choice.

Bankruptcy case

I would recommend Carmen Soto to anyone in need of a lawyer. She helped me with my Bankruptcy case, and was very helpful in a very stressful and intense time of my life. It truly shows that she cares for her clients, and is very knowledgeable about the law.

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.
