Expert Legal Help and a Great Boss

David Muñoz helped me clear warrants while I was out of state and made everything simple and stress-free. I also worked as his secretary/assistant for a few months, and he was an amazing, supportive boss. Truly grateful for him!

Bad, lazy, money hungry lawyer

David did not fight for my rights as a father. I spent countless hours gathering all the evidence he needed to win my case, and he completely disregarded anything and everything presented. He believed the other side more than he believed me as his client, and at the end, took the easiest route for hi...mself as I got stuck with barely any changes in visitation and having to complete multiple classes, all because he ignored my plead to pay attention to the evidence I provided. This lawyer is lazy and only looking to make a quick buck, do not take a chance on your case with this lawyer like I did. A complete waist of $5,000.

MUNOZ IS THE MAN!

Munoz took on my case in the middle of the night, when I needed him the most. Literally got a hold of him at midnight, he drove from Whittier to Riverside to meet with me and started making the calls to meet with investigators in the morning. He kept me informed, got my case and sentence reduced to m...erely nothing. Gave me complete case documents as he received him, answered all my calls, met with me and kept my family informed of the case, day by day, He ended up showing friendship throughout the case, yet kept his exceptional professionalism the whole time. I was confident every court case I went to. He told the judge what we wanted and we got it. I can't imagine where i WOULD BE TODAY HAD i HIRED A DIFFERENT LAWYER! THANK YOU DAVID!
