Top-notch!

I will always be thankful that I hired Adam as my attorney for my case over anyone else. He is everything you want and truly need in a lawyer. He is hardworking, diligent and fearless in the courtroom. Adam is very professional, but easy to talk to at the same time. He is a great communicator, confid...ent and proactive in his decisions. During the time that Adam worked on my case he had a plan for every step of the way. There were several different scenarios that could have played out and he had a game plan for each one. He saw the bigger picture, knew what the options were and never missed a beat. He explained everything to me in detail and always responded immediately whenever I had a question. I tend to be skeptical, but I trusted Adam completely to handle my case. In the end, my case was dismissed and I have Adam to thank for that. He made the best of a difficult situation.

Best Lawyer

Ive never been in a situation like this before. I didn't know know who to turn to when a good friend of mine referred Adam to me. It was the best decision ever. He made the process really easy, he made me comfortable & he was excess-able if i had any questions or concerns. He always reminded me of c...ourts dates the day before & he worked out a payment plan for me. Overall I was truly happy with the service he provided. I would definitely hire him again!

Great Results!!

I was pulled over and taken to jail some time ago and I felt that I was unjustifiably wronged during the entire process. I was determined to beat my case so I decided to hire a lawyer. I did a google search and stumbled on Capetillo Law Firm. I did not know much about his practice, and I just took... a chance on calling his number. From our first initial conversation, i felt that he was a organic, honest, and down to earth person that I could work with. I hired him as my lawyer and from day 1, he was working on my case. Honestly, he started working on my case much sooner before he was ever hired. Talking about going above and beyond!! He answered all of my questions and always returned my calls and/or text messages. The day of my court date, Adam calls me into the courtroom to have a seat. About 2 minutes later, he asked me to meet him in the lawyer/client room. He tells me that he has gotten my entire case DISMISSED and that I also have an option to write a complaint against the officer that pulled me over and took me to jail. Talking about JUSTICE!!!!!! I was blown away. I never had to speak to the judge! Matter of fact, I never had to get out of my seat!! Everything went very smooth, and he far exceeded my expectations. Thank you Adam for everything! If you want a competent lawyer that stands by you in your case, this is the man. I will be referring you to everybody I know, because in the current times that we are living in, it good to know that there are good lawyers out there that willing to fight wrongdoings. Thanks again Adam.

Highly recommend!

After speaking to multiple attorneys, I hired Adam for my father’s case. From the beginning to the end, he held our hand every step of the way. He was always available. He was kind and treated us with respect & answered our 5 million questions patiently. If you’re looking for an honest, trust worthy ...lawyer who will fight for you then Adam’s your guy. I highly recommend Adam to anyone.

Extremely skilled council

The Capetillo Law Firm was my final choice of the six interviews I had when selecting my lawyer. Adam is a calculated knowledgeable professional and very capable lawyer. I had a complicated scenario with many working parts and Adam was very quick to address all details . He was successful in having m...y entire case dropped !! That is incredible and he was well worth every penny spent. Highly recommend and will always be in my contacts list.

I solely handle immigration cases so I send all of my criminal issues to Adam because I know he will take care of my clients. I trust Adam with all criminal issues in Harris and Fort Bend County. He is knowledgeable about the courts and he knows a lot of the prosecutors, which is a big help with many cases. I highly recommend Adam as a fellow attorney."
