Posted by anonymous | January 24, 2018 | Hired Attorney | Child Custody

Worth every penny ......

Mr. Samaniego handled our child custody matter. It took a lot of work and a lot of time but he was very professional and compassionate to our situation. His knowledge of family law cannot be measured, he is off the charts. I would recommend him to anyone looking for an attorney that works hard for... his clients.

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.
