Knowledgeable and Professional

I hired the attorneys at Ellis and Ortega for a criminal case about two months ago. I was very satisfied with the level of care and professionalism that I was treated with. Mr. Ortega did a fantastic job and the office and support staff returned phone calls and emails when they said they would. Due t...o Mr. Ortega's expertise and legal knowledge, I received the dismissal order this week which is months earlier than I had anticipated. They are definitely my go-to attorneys for any legal matter from now on!

One of the best of this area!

Randolph Ortega represented my boyfriend a few years ago over a probation revocation that wasn't his fault. The DA attempted to give him the full term in prison time, but Mr. Ortega worked hard on the case and won out in the end. We have yet to see another attorney as aggressive and dedicated to ...doing his best. I would definitely recommend getting him. He's very professional, understanding, friendly (and a bit of a jokester), and tries his hardest. Exceptional, especially for a lawyer of so many years.

Great Result oriented attorney

Mr. Ortega gave me direct opinions about my case and my options. In the end I am happy with my lawyer and his work.

Great Criminal Defense Lawyer

I was charged in a criminal case and Mr. Ortega helped out of the mess.

Mr. Ortega was very knowledgeable and worked very hard. I was kept informed throughout my case. I do wish he took phone calls because he always made me make an appointment to talk to him. The cost was high, but in the long run I am very happy I made the right decision.

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.
