Awesome attorney!

Out of the blue the father of my daughter decided to stir things up a bit with me. My first reaction was I was scared and why is he doing this. My cousin had helped me search for a lawyer because I didn't feel comfortable going in this without one. The first lawyer we found was Ernesto Romero and he ...had excellent reviews from other people he's worked with and helped. I decided to give him and call and he was so willing to take on my case and help me in any way to get what's best for my daughter. We are not through this yet, but so close to ending this and moving from this. Things are looking so amazing and I couldn't be more thankful for such a great attorney. Not only is Mr. Romero the BEST lawyer for this kind of case but he is also friendly, kind and very understanding and willing to fight for you no matter what it takes. Never had a problem with him not returning my emails or calls, he's always got back to me right away. Just overall the best and I feel so blessed to have had the opportunity to get to know Mr. Romero and have him help me through this whole ordeal.

Top notch Counsellor who is a true "Counselor"

Ernesto has provided legal assistance multiple times on my family and divorce matters, and is incredibly responsive. He is incredibly knowledgeable, professional, and takes the time to really understand my specific legal situation which I feel is really a rarity with attorneys and their caseloads. ... He understand the differences in county court systems, the nuances of other attorneys he has worked with and if you research has been very successful in his legal career so I have found can cut right to the chase of putting together a plan and guiding you to stick to it. Once you take the time to explain both the big picture and then provide some accurate detail, I am confident that like I have, you will see the floodgates open and he will bring his decades of experience to the table - like a hammer! It is this decisive analysis and subsequent action follow-through that will help you sleep better at night during what can be one of the most stressful times of your life.

I highly recommend Mr. Ernesto Romero to represent you.

I hired Mr. Romero for a divorce case. I could not have had some one better represent me. Mr. Romero is very attentive person and an all around professional when it comes to listening to your needs and concerns. He always returned my calls and emails promptly, and moved very swiftly with paperwork. C...ompared to the lawyer we were up against, he tried to get a resolution as fast as possible. If you're looking for someone with a kind personality with an all business attitude toward your case, I recommend Mr. Romero to represent you .

Attorney Ernesto Romero

Ernesto Romero jumped in on my custody case and fixed everything that went wrong. I gave him one day notice due to certain circumstances, but he cleaned house and more. Without a doubt, the best custody attorney in the state. Thank you Ernesto, I couldn't of done it without you. You are ethical, bril...lant and one of a kind!!!

Phenomenal results and fast

Atty. Romero's commitment and hard work make him one of the best family law attorneys I have ever met. He goes above and beyond his duties to make sure his clients receive the best legal representation. Atty. Romero received my divorce file from another attorney, and he wasted no time to get me divor...ced quickly and with outstanding results. He demonstrated unparalleled dedication and professionalism. Without a doubt, Atty. Romero is an expert in very difficult divorce cases. I highly recommend him.
