Not trustworthy

Colleen promised us so many things in our case that was not provided. After hiring her I felt good about where the case can go. Shortly after being hired the responses and worked slowed down. My husband and I did not like her antics during the case.

Great lawyer!

Colleen has done such a great job planning and guiding me through a very difficult and complicated situation. She put the interests and needs of my son first throughout the whole process and was very strategic in her approach. I'm lucky to have her as my attorney and glad I trusted her process.

Very professional and knowledgeable

Colleen Contreras has always been straight forward, compassionate and concerned about the well being of my children. I have been working with her for about two years. Throughout them she has gone to bat for me and never lost her passion to help me and my children. The professionalism from her team an...d herself will be one I recommend for anyone in need of services she provides. I will continue working with her as long as I need while raising my daughters.

Wonderful and caring lawyer

I recommend Colleen very highly. She is caring, and considerate and truly cares about her clients. We were very fortunate in finding someone like Colleen to help us through a difficult time. She and her office staff always respond quickly.

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.
