Posted by Javier | November 28, 2012 | Juvenile

It is without hesitation that I would recommend Ms. Claudia E. Candelas an attorney.

Back in 2010 Ms. Candelas represented my teenage son in a very difficult case. From the first conversation I had with Ms. Candelas through the duration of my son’s court case, she always kept me informed about every detail of the case and promptly returned all of my phone calls. Ms. Candelas made a d...ifficult situation very comfortable with her professionalism and help us tremendously in the process. Thanks to her efforts, knowledge of the law and ability to relate to our needs as clients, my son received the best possible outcome we could have asked for. I cannot express enough, my gratitude to Ms. Candelas for her honesty, respect, and diligence in the handling of my son’s case. Thank you for everything, Javier

I was so relieved when I consulted with Ms Candelas

Ms. Candelas was recommended to me by a family friend. Often, writing a review or recommendation can be tough to make time for in a busy schedule, but in Ms Candelas's case, I feel honored to have the opportunity to describe what a top notch lawyer and person she is. First thing I noticed a...bout Ms Candelas was how nice and friendly she was. She makes you feel like you have been friends for years. So we went from Ms Candelas to Claudia. She is extremely thorough and knowledgeable... and always seems to go the extra mile to solve and avoid problems. I always feel secure when working with Claudia in that I am confident she will be responsive and will take the care and time to be complete in her analysis and solution for any issue. She is one of the best lawyers I've found at getting to the core of a situation, fully addressing my concerns, and often even changing my mind when necessary given the high level she operates and thinks. She was also great at keeping me updated by regular phone calls and e-mails. She also answered my calls and e-mails promptly. Claudia is also very fair with her rates. My case could have gone on for years. She took action and got my case solved very quickly. Claudia puts her clients first. Any time that an issue comes up in the future, Ms Candelas will be the first person I will contact. I look forward to working with her for many more years.

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.
