Superior, knowledgeable representation

I sought for Ms. Salcido as my lawyer for legal assistance based on her history of being energetic, knowledgeable, and caring. Her performance exceeded my expectations. Upon her agreement for providing my legal representation, she gathered necessary information and letters were sent to recipients ass...ociated in my case immediately regarding responsibility of the opposing party and what must be presented in a timely manner to support their position. The information and requests in those letters were precise. All retort was met with firm, well-informed responses, and she updated me throughout my representation. Her ability to prepare a strong argument improved my position for not only retention, but also promotion. It was through Ms. Salcido’s work ethic and knowledge that I am again looking forward to a longer, bright future with my employer. I highly recommend, without any hesitation, Ms. Salcido.

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.
