A Very Respected Man

If you are in need of an attorney, stop right now and hire Roy Dominguez. Roy is more than an attorney. He actually cares for his clients and works hard to get the best for your outcome. Roy's communication skills are above standards and is always there when you have questions or concerns. His im...mediate response to text messages and e-mails goes way beyond the call of duty. His calming voice and conversations would help ease the anxiety that one goes through when experiencing a court case. Roy is very respected by his professional peers inside and outside of the court room which is extremely important. The years of experience in his field and the knowledge that he brings to the table is evident when dealing with any case. Yes I did hire Roy and am grateful that I did. This review is all about Roy. He is the best!!!!

5 star service

Mr Dominguez did a fantastic job on what I feel could have been a challenging case. I was more than pleased with the outcome. I believe his rates to be fair & his services second to none. I would definitely use Mr Dominguez again.

I thank God for this man!

Roy Dominguez was referred to me from my pastor. This man was a God Send! He is personable, concerned, genuine and has the most caring spirit of any lawyer I've ever met. I was charged with OWI and resisting arrest which is a felony. He was able to have those charges reduced to reckless driving. T...here was a breathalyzer refusal which he also had dismissed. I love this man, dearly and highly recommend him!

There's only one word to describe AMAZING

My daughter had 20 tickets over 7 years in two different counties and I think 5 different Police stations (I Think) She had so many issues it seemed impossible to get any progress. Roy calmed us down and patiently consolidated, had dropped, and actually paid one of her fines out his retainer. She bec...ame VALID today the first time in years. My daughter lost her Mom in accident and it really effected her behavior and Roy helped us along the way he was supportive and sensitive to our situation, warm, and confident. I recommend him highly, just AMAZING!

Outstanding Service with Excellent Results

Attorney Roy Dominguez, has given me back my life. I found myself facing a felony charge related to a DUI, and a substantial period of time w/o a drivers license. I needed an Attorney who would listen, care, and then defend. I reached out to Roy at a friends urging. My friend explained that Roy ...is a very honorable man and above reproach. I am so impressed with Attorney Dominguez. Both the man, and his swift ability and action he took to obtain my life back from ruin. I'm a professional and what I was facing would have ruined my career. Attorney Dominguez ' s fees are fair and he will work with you as to a reasonable payment plan. I highly recommend Him! Thank You, Roy!
