Vincent Rene Carrizales II

Went through a custody battle and Mr. Carrizales was great. It's a scary time but he walked me through everything and eased my fears. He was knowledgeable and responsded immediately to all of my calls, texts and emails. I am very pleased with his service and my outcome. I would, and do, recommend him to others.

He was very professional, the things he told me were very pertinent to my husband's case, and he got the job done easily and quickly with very little headache on my part. He was discreet and made me feel at ease. He knows what he is doing and seems to have excellent relationships with the court and the prosecutors office. Very highly recommended for any defense case.

He is very unorganized, missed filing dates which are very important to any case and does not return calls or provide any sort of communication. We had to fire him and hire another attorney on a case that should have been a slam dunk. I hope this review benefits someone else from wasting money.

I admit I screwed up and found myself facing multiple criminal charges. The first attorney I talked to wanted 10 grand and I balked on that and eneded up with Vincent at a liitle more than a 1/3 that price. What a huge mistake. I thought things were ok until the end and then it was obvious Vincent felt as if he had done enough for the price paid and he simplt stopped responding to my texts and emails. Not only that but if I didn't know any better I would assume this was his first criminal case. He didn't tell many pertinent things and everything he did tell me was incorrect. Two of those things did end up in my favor, I got 3 years probation instead of the 5 he told me I would probably get and the 200 hours of community service turned out to be 180. Everything else was a negative for me. The suspension of my license, the inability to reclaim my property from the police and time in jail and were just a few of the items I was mislead on. At the end he just stopped responding to me and asked that I talk to his paralegal Irene. She was one of the rudest most condesending human beings I have ever dealt with. IMO Vincent should settle on one aspect of law and do it well, instead he spreads himself thin and does a poor job. I don't think Vincent is a bad person, just a bad lawyer.

Had to fired him right away he was late in court day and was agains me instead of helping me ; Never return my phone calls and the secretary was rude.
