Miguel Antonio Ortiz

I don't know if Miguel Ortiz still runs his own office or joined an attorney group, but if you ever encounter him please AVOID his legal services at all costs. He ignored my entire case until the day of court and asked for all of the info right before we went into the courtroom. He came off as unp...repared when speaking to the judge (obviously). Outside of the courtroom he was very unprofessional, & rude. AVOID Miguel Ortiz in the San Antonio area. He does not have your best interest at heart.

Mr. Ortiz was recommended to me by a family friend. This friend said that he was the best divorce lawyer in town. I read all of these negative reviews about him, but disregarded them based on the testimony of this family friend. I cannot overstate what a huge mistake that was. Every word of these neg...ative reviews is accurate. I felt completely alone, filling out all the divorce paperwork without any guidance from the man to whom I had paid thousands of dollars to represent me. He never notified me about anything to the point where I had to hear about court dates from the woman I was trying to divorce. He never shared with me any court filings regarding the case, even after I repeatedly asked to see them. He treated requests for clarification and assistance with nothing short of disdain. On the rare occurrence that he did take my calls to answer questions, he did so in the most condescending manner possible. He would say things like "I don't even know why you're asking me this. These things are very straightforward. You could figure it out yourself if you stopped over thinking it." and do anything to get off the phone as quickly as possible while providing as little actual legal advice as possible. I was filling out paperwork while terrified that my wife was going to take away my access to my children, and the man treated my questions like nothing more than an annoyance and an inconvenience. When I pointed out that the manner in which he was answering my questions was offending me, he blew up, yelled at me, and quit representing me on the spot. One month out from divorce proceedings he abandoned me because I dared to point out that I didn't think he was treating me professionally. After hiring him, I am unquestionably worse off than I was before. I beg you, for your own sake, do NOT hire this man.

I hired Mr. Ortiz to represent me. The bad reviews are true. The amount he charges does not compare to the work. He does not take the time to properly review your case. He does make himself available but forgets key information on the day of court or ask for information at the last minute. You end up... finding about your court date the afternoon or night prior. He does not keep you up to date on the actions taken and says he tells you things when he does not. He is arrogant and rude. And don’t try to tell him he is not doing a good job because he will snap at you. Loves to mansplain. My problems are worse now then before I hired him. Save your money and go somewhere else.

I hired Mr. Ortiz for family legal services a few months ago. From my initial consultation, all the way to the actual court trial. He was available to answer all of my questions throughout and was able to handle any concerns that I had. This attorney is straight forward with a high level of expertise... and professionalism. I am very much pleased with Mr. Ortiz and his law office.

He is a scam artist in all aspects. He sells himself as a caring honorable individual who served in the Army and is willing to help out a fellow veteran, but dont be fooled by his scam. He took my money did the bare minimum, He never informed me about anything no matter how many times I would call or... show up at his office. My court date was a surprice since I had to find out from my daughter the day before. He showed up late which really was appreciated by the Judge and finally he just stood there staring blankly. The divorce decree is half hand written and is so broad there might have been no decree at all. I have lost visitation time and my relationship with my daughter thanks Mr. Ortiz.
