Immigration lawyer | Apr 20

Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

"I've known Damaris for several years. We met when she was a law school student. She really cares about her clients. She is motivated to do her very best. I am now referring her immigration and criminal cases. I've also agreed to mentor her with a Houston Volunteeer Lawyer family law case. She is committed, responsible and caring. I believe that her rates are very competitive in the Houston market. I will refer family law cases to her for people that need a Spanish speaking attorney."

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.
