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.

Mr. Ortiz presents himself very well initially but once you have paid to have him as your lawyer he fails to keep you informed on what is going on, when the next court dates are, and is very arrogant and condescinding if questions are asked that he feels you dont need to know. In any case dealing wit...h your family and your future during a divorce, no question should be beneath him because he your lawyer that you are paying. This process was very stressful and his parallegal was not professional at all! My divorce paperwork was never typed up correctly, it was presented totally wrong in court due to this, I've never received copies of anything yet. It is my understanding the parallegal is the person that most of the contact is with, but his parallegal is not professional, not relliable, and never gets back with you until maybe 2-3 weeks later if he does! Very unprofessional law office and staff! I would NOT recommend Mr. Miguel Ortiz to anyone.

Several times I was not informed that I had a court date set. My babys father would ask me why we are going to court in a couple of days and of course I didn't even know we were scheduled to go to court. I'll call the office and not get a response. It's not unusual to wait days or weeks before someon...e calls me back!! Miguel is good in court. He knows how to represent you and very knowledgeable. But what if my babys dad never told me about court? Then I wouldve been absent for my hearing over my custody of my baby!!!!
