Horrible Attorney

Was assigned as a court appointed attorney in late 2020. If you want a lawyer who fights for you. This guy is DEFINITELY not IT! I mean He doesn’t text back. UNLESS you bug him to death. Witch is really sad. Barley picks his phone up. Will NOT update you on court dates or settings. Nor does he care a...bout your case. He prob just looks at it the day of and pushes it to the side. He should be stripped of his license. If I was as care free on things as he is to his clients I would have filed complaint after complaint. His only Interest is himself and his motorcycle. He post on social media but will def look the other way if you need him. Horrible service. And he knows it. HIRE PROFESSIONAL HELP

Just amazing!!!

We had a different attorney and were about to sign but then spoke to Mr. Olivo about the case and decided to hire him instead. He went above and beyond and the results were amazing! He also didnt charge a arm and a leg! I am so happy and thankful to have had him as an attorney, he truely cares

Divorce court

Mr. Olivo was a municipal judge when he handled my divorce case. I was sent to jail for 19 days for something i did not do and he let me rot in there even though he had a recorded call from my ex wifes friend that I was not guilty and was set up. I also paid Mr. Olivo 375.00 to start to follow up on ...the conversation. He basically did not question anything my ex wifes attorney did or why the police did not enforce the restraining order. The so called trial was a joke and i want my 375.00 back.

Mr. Doering, I'm sorry you were not satisfied with my legal services. It may have to do with the fact that I did not represent you on your criminal matter. I only represented you on the divorce, which was finalized in your favor in July 2013. Your criminal case wasn't resolved until June 2016. These two cases are completely unrelated. You may recall that you were appointed an attorney for your criminal case and any time you spent in jail was due to the fact that you were unable to post bond.
