DWI , Assault

If you’re looking for an attorney to be there for you through and through stand by your side. This is not the attorney for you unfortunately. Not only did I barely have any contact with him regarding my cases. Most of the times that I did come into contact with his office is when when they were requ...esting payments. He always stuck in court I would barely get callbacks from him when I requested them . His assistants said I would need to pay to speak with him when he was busy .When I had a warrant out for my arrest his advice to me was to lay low and to avoid being arrested while he could try to do something for me. I had to leave work for a whole month and not only that he kept pushing my court dates back and I ended up getting picked up and it made me look even worse in front of the judge. He barely defended me in any of my court hearings he would have one statement and after that he would stay silent while the prosecutor had a whole list of things to say about me. Only reason I stuck with him as a lawyer was because I hired his brother initially. Unfortunately after his passing I was not able to get my money back they were going to keep it so I had no choice but to go with him and I regret it fully . He wanted me to sit in jail while I waited for him to fight my case which was practically beat and when I hired him to handle my other case he withdrew after I couldn’t not pay him because I was juggling bills after being released but I was still willing to make small payments. But before I could do so I wanted to speak with him and his assistants requested payment first before I could consult with him. Worst experience I’ve ever had with a paid attorney .

Unprofessional

Hired him for 2 cases charged me $400 right away told me not to worry . Court day comes could not get ahold of anyone in his office 15 minutes before walking in to court he calls and say he isn't going that I would be there on my own . He did absolutely nothing but keep my money. I had to pay court c...ost at court called him afterwards and he refused to give me any refund and refused to even refund the extra money I payed at court which judge said would be refunded if anyone had a lawyer. Manuel parra and his team refused to give me 1cent back because I had given them a bad review. They were more concerned about review than about the case I had hired them for. Instead of feeling relieved and helped I just got more stress and ended up losing $500 to people who did not help whatsoever but taking my credit number to get hired. Very disappointed at these people!

Quick Resolution and Efficient!

I contacted Manny Parra through Facebook on my citation issue, Ergo received a letter stating I had to be present at court the following day for citations dated 2018. I’ve never had much Lucy with responses on Facebook, always receive an automated response to follow prompts. He responded personally ...within 30 minutes I was told I’d be contacted shortly after sending him the pictures. Sure enough everything was said and done within a 2 hour span, got them dismissed didn’t even have to go in! Received my receipt through email along with documentation of proof of the dismissal the following day! Will definitely seek them out again if ever need it be!

Wouldn't trust anyone, but Parra Law

I had my criminal case dismissed, thanks to Manuel Parra. Mr. Parra was very attentive throughout my ordeal, very efficient and thorough in explaining every step of the way. He's extremely knowledgeable in criminal law and very passionate about his work. He always returned any calls I made to his o...ffice, after leaving a message with his super friendly assistants. Consultation was with the attorney himself and not an assistant; always a plus. I would highly recommend Mr. Parra to any family/friends in legal trouble.
