Review for Attorney Artie Aguilar

I hired Mr. Aguilar for a complex legal matter, and he delivered excellent results. He not only won my case, but continued to support me afterward by offering guidance and consultations whenever I had questions. His commitment to his clients goes beyond just finishing the case—he truly cares. What... impressed me most was that Mr. Aguilar was never focused on money—he focused on doing the job right and making sure I understood every step. I always felt like I had someone in my corner. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a knowledgeable, responsive, and genuinely dedicated attorney.

HORRIBLE LAWYER

If your not paying this guy don't expect a call a text an email back for any matter of importance. He is the exact stereotype of a public defender will do the bear minimum for your case and will only talk to you about your case in person if you have an opportunity to even see him run while you can.

Most disrespectful and horrible attorney

If I could give him negative starts I would 100%. My husband had the worst luck of getting him as his court appointed attorney, because we just weren't making enough to have a personal paid attorney. He does not return phone calls, text messages, or emails. It's like he doesn't listen when we told hi...m about what happened the night that everything started, we have given him more than enough for him to file a motion to discover, and even a motion to dismiss. We will sit in court for almost 2 hours before he even acknowledges us, only to say reset. He has done nothing on any of the offers from the DA, nor made a counter offer. We've been dealing with this since April(first court date) it is now November and I not lying when I say my husband has had maybe 20 minutes of his time, but far from undivided attention. And we watch as more and more people are assigned to him. He is a personal injury attorney, not a criminal attorney. He doesn't care about his clients, their families, or trying to get justice. We watched multiple people come and go in court today, one which was a first degree felony max sentence life, assault of a peace officer and he walked on 7 years deferred adjudication probation, but when it comes down to it he does absolutely nothing to fight for his clients. He laughed in my face today, and asked me what he should do? Follow up with everything we told you, show some sort of initiative on trying to help. I literally hate this man, and feel sorry for anyone who has to have him represent him.

SORRY

Emailed to ask if information was needed to help speed up my family member's case in which this guy was court appointed. Turned into a something you wouldn't expect from a lawyer, that included telling me to find another lawyer. This guy is rude and unprofessional and has no care for the people he ...is suppose to represent. You would think with all that education he would act a little more professional, and have some type of pride in what he does.. But all you get is this guy. And unless you have money then he doesn't have the time for you. If you are looking for a lawyer please look else where, even if you do have the money. He's not worth it with that SORRY attitude alone. Trust me if we had the money it would quickly be sent to a far better attorney. We are still waiting for something, anything from this guy as of the date of this review. I would love to give my first name and go into way more detail, but it looks like our first encounter is still being taken out on my family member who has yet to be seen by a judge while waiting in jail for 5 months now. Still looking on a higher up to report this attorney to.
