Very helpful

I have consulted with Jorge on various legal matters, including two criminal issues. On both criminal cases he was very thorough and took the time to clearly explain our options. I have also had the opportunity to watch him represent someone in a jury trial on an unrelated criminal case (I worked n...ear the courthouse). Very impressive!

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
