Aggressive and Passionate Lawyer Ever!

I hired Montano te represent my under age child who was accused as a sexual offender. Montano did a great job, guided us on every single detail we needed to do, and I will always appreciate that he got to work in this DIFFICULT case. Thanks to Montano my son was exiled of everything; plus he also ga...ve some personal advises as an adult to my child. He takes his cases very personal and serious, plus the ethics he has is amazing. Thanks Montano.

outstanding attorney

I am a single mother and at the time I had absolutely no way pay for an attorney. I was falsely accused of a crime and the charge was serious so I knew I needed someone and someone good to represent me. I was scared to death not to mention broke so I decided I would atleast try and see if I could ge...t some sort of legal advice. I called a few different offices but no one would really even talk to me let alone see me as soon as I mentioned my money situation. The last place I tried was Mr. Montano's and they were able to work me in the next day with a free consultation to speak with a lawyer. Mr.Montano and everyone in that office were very understanding of my financial situation and did everything possible to help me. Mr. Montano decided he would take my case ProBono and never treated me as if my case didnt matter because I wasnt a paying client. My case ended up going all the way to trial but I am so very thankful with all of Mr. Montano's hard work I was found not guilty. Words cannot express how greatful I am to this man because my entire future and life could have been very damaged from this and because of him its not. I would refer him to anyone who needs a great, very hard working and compassionate attorney! Thank you again to Mr. Montano for everything

Great lawyer

Attorney Jose Montaño provided a great service to me. I had a fraud case and in less 24 hours he contacted the agents, talked to them and arranged an appointment. When we met with them he proved with evidence that it wasn't me and they dissolved the case. I was impressed because I got that fixed in l...ess than 48 hours. He took charge right away which impressed me, he was honest and did everything that he promised to do. I definitely recommend again

Flexible and attentive to details

I reached out to him in regards to some real estate consultation and I could be more happy with the service i received. I have a VERY busy and hectic schedule and i reached out with a small deadline and Jose was caring enough to move his schedule around to speak with me. He told me I could reach out ...to him with any other questions and I was completely surprised when he replied back to emails after hours. He took the time to listen to everything and didnt jump to conclusions. Even more, he provided options for me to do some things to save me steps and money.

Excellent Representation!

To say Mr. Montano was a “lifesaver,” would be an understatement. Words cannot express my gratitude to him for his willingness to take on my case just days prior to my court date. Montano’s hard work and dedication in ensuring my best possible outcome at court, in addition to the kindness he showed m...e during a very low point in my life, were qualities of his representation that I will never forget. I had never been in any type of legal trouble before, so I was unfamiliar with the whole process. Montano effectively explained everything to me, answered all of my questions, and was there for me every step of the way. I don’t think I have ever been more nervous than the morning I had to appear in front of the judge in court; I am so grateful that I had Montano (who exudes confidence) by my side that day. Because of Montano, I am now a thriving law school student who was given a remarkable “second chance." I was greatly inspired by Montano’s passion and superior knowledge of the law. I could not have been more pleased with his representation--I highly recommend him to anyone in need of his services!
