BRIGHT, KNOWLEDGEABLE, DILIGENT

Have you ever heard the phrase "It's not what you know, it's who you know"? Well, for Mr. Yañez, it's both! Not only does he know the right people to help with my case, but he is very knowledgeable when it came to defending me in court. I have no problems referring him to my family and friends. I ca...n see him one day becoming a judge, but for now I'm glad that he's my attorney.

Family Law

As a single Dad I knew I had an uphill battle to gain primary custody of my son. But thanks to Mr. Yanez I was ultimately awarded full custody. His knowledge of the law and ability to use it to our advantage turned the whole case around. I was very fortunate and grateful I had Mr. Yanez in my corner....

Won my divorce and custody case!

Mr Yanez was very professional and direct in helping me with my divorce and custody case. We won the case and he always answered all my questions in a timely manor and helped me prepare for the final hearing. Very pleased with outcome. His staff is also great when calling or need help with a questio...n.

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.
