Very personal contact - am delighted she handled my son's case
I am the father of one of Angelica's clients. She worked very hard on his case and kept in touch, keeping me informed, every step of the way. Her office staff was extremely helpful in keeping things moving during this very difficult time.

"Angelica is one of my favorite lawyers in the Austin community. When a person is accused of a criminal offense, their lawyer needs to analyze the elements of the offense and relevant facts to find any holes in the state's case. There is no replacement for immaculate attention to detail, a knowledge of the law, and hard work. Angelica brings each of these pieces to her cases and anyone would be lucky to have her as their lawyer."
"I endorse this lawyer!!! Angelica was trained by the best Trial Lawyers in this Country. I watched her perform. If you are going to Trial, this is the girl you want in your corner. In addition, she has a huge heart and will fight for you out the gate!!!"
"I have known Angelica since our first year of law school. She is a skilled and compassionate attorney who knows the law very well. Angelica is readily available and not afraid to work long hours for her clients. I endorse this lawyer."
