Parents to a Current Client

As parents, we have appreciated the legal guidance and patience Andrew Salinas has provided to us as he helps our son with his case. Andrew has always been attentive to our questions about the legal process and how it has impacted our son’s situation. We highly recommend Andrew as a criminal defens...e attorney – he cares.

Great communication and follow-through

Worked with Andrew for a Public Intoxication case that also involved potential Misdemeanor Assault charges (for a minor push). Andrew was easy to communicate with and followed through on my requests and questions, whilst also going the extra mile to drive to a distant courthouse to expedite a resu...lt on my case due to travel needs. Would highly recommend Andrew to anyone that needs criminal or immigration help.

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.

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.
