Review Nina Montoya

Very Knowledgable and Responsive

Posted by

Nina is very knowledgable and responsive. She provided an initial consultation; presented my options; and vigorously went to work on my behalf. If you have a contract or agreement issues, I would certainly recommend that you give her a call or send her an email.

Nina Montoya is a most excellent attorney. She's represented me in several high-profile negotiations/agreements and blew my mind each time with her clarity, super-powered competence, can't stop/won't stop attitude, sense of dedication to what she was doing for me, and all with a calmness and decisive sense of purpose. She's highly intelligent, trustworthy, and always expanding her knowledge base. She was highly communicative, discussing everything with me before making any moves, and she always responded to any correspondence in an extremely timely manner. Nina goes above and beyond in many respects, always remaining ahead of the proverbial eight-ball. I would HIGHLY recommend Nina Montoya and feel a certain sense of calm knowing she's on my team.
