Helped Me Despite Being Sick
Ms. Amaro helped me with information I needed to start my own business even though she was very sick. She still took time out to talk to me and to help me. She is not like any other lawyer you will ever meet. She actually cares about people.

Insightful and realistic
I had a unique family law issue that I took to Mrs. Amaro. She was able to see the major issues and put them into words years before the judges were able to see the truth. If the legal system were as intelligent and intuitive as Mrs. Amaro we would all be better off. If it weren't for Mrs. Amaro and ...

Experience
Professional misconduct
This lawyer was disciplined by a state licensing authority in 2009.
Public Reprimand and Probation issued in ID, 2009
updated on 03/13/2014Reprimand means the attorney did something wrong but may still practice law. While on probation, the State monitors the attorney's activities for a period of time in hopes that he or she will not repeat the behavior.
Rami’s comment:
“This involved a former client who was fired from her job after she engaged in misconduct. She blamed me as I had asked that the bank remove her access to my accounts due to her unstable behavior. I chose not to appeal the initial appeal decision by the bar - although I strenuously disagree with it.”
Reprimand issued in WA, 2009
updated on 03/13/2014This means the attorney did something wrong, but the Bar did not suspend the lawyer. Typically in this case the lawyer's poor behavior is exposed to the public in hopes that he or she will not repeat the behavior.
Rami’s comment:
“This is the same matter - but reciprocal discipline by another state (required). This involved a former client who was fired from her job after she engaged in misconduct. She blamed me as I had asked that the bank remove her access to my accounts due to her unstable behavior. I chose not to appeal the initial appeal decision by the bar - although I strenuously disagree with it.”
