CORTEZ MADE MY FILING FOR BANKRUPTCY FAST AND EASY

I had to file for bankruptcy and Cortez helped me do it. I just wanted to get it over with as soon as possible and he made it happen. He was always easy to get a hold of and always available to answer any questions I had right away.

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.
