Humberto Saldana III

Mr. Saldana did an amazing job! He went above and beyond to help us take care of a pending case we have going. He also kept in touch with us during the whole process and took the time to answer every question we had. He is definitely a lawyer you want on your side! We highly recommend him to anyone i...n need of his services!

Mr. Humberto Saldana Is the perfect example of why Cape Fear should be based on a True story. He was my court appointed Attorney and he never came to see me the entire 3 months i was incarcerated. My family called him relentlessly to discuss my case to make it clear that the accusations that i was ch...arged with...by an ex girl friend..were false. She even wrote an advidavit...wrote a statement to the District Attorney..The Prosecutor and even to the SAPD officers who came out to file the report. Completely retracting her Statements that she was drunk and had no clue who caused her injury. Ok well after completely not showing up on my first court date...causing me to be reset... He informs me they are offering me 6 years on an aggravated case Deferred. But if i pay my fines and finish my classes i can be off of probation in 2 years felony free. Lie number one. There is no early realease from probation on an aggravated case. It’s day for day the full lenthg of your plea. He then tells me that if i plea the agg case my other charges would be dismissed lie number 2. Not one single of my others charges were dropped. Then he tells me that the prosecutors were requesting a TAIP evaluation and psychological. What he failed to mention was the 160 days in lock down mental facility on top of the 6 years. I had find that out from other lawyer at my other court date to face the charges that were supposed have been dropped. So when i go in front of the judge Mr Humberto’s 6 years have magically turned into 8. He actually went to over to the prosecutors to nagotiate my plea and came back with more years than he started frim, lie number 3. this dude knew my i had just my grandmother and gave me more grief counseling than legal counsel. This dude lied about everything even saying that the prosecution had evidence against me they didn’t when i expressed my concern over taking the deal at all when my girlfriend retracted and wasn’t even present in court.He is a useless a a condom with holes in it. And he couldn’t have gave a care less that his incompetence caused me to miss Christmas and New Years without my kids and without my granny’s for the first time. Because he was off living his best life on vacation captizaling on a system that is totally set up for Individuals like Mr. Humberto to profit off of those whose only crime in real is not being able to offered a defense. If your love one is unlucky enough to have him as a court appointed and you can’t afford to pay him under the table enough to care. Your loved one is better representing themselves.

While initially Saldana was helpful, within a month of us hiring him he began to become less responsive. There were a few court hearings, and he only showed up prepared to the first one. After the first court hearing, we had to keep copies of all the paperwork and make sure to bring it because Saldan...a would always "forget". He was extremely rude after the first month or so and would constantly pressure us to plead guilty despite having an extremely good case. We ended up dropping him because we couldn't get a hold of him for almost two weeks despite calling almost 10 times over that period. When he finally answered, he agreed to meet us. When he met us, he asked for payment. We paid him, he "had to go", then we couldn't get a hold of him again.
