About Mauro
Biography
During law school I worked for the Sacramento DA's office. There I handled thousands of cases. The majority being DUIs and domestic violence related cases. Upon graduation I was offered a job as a prosecutor. I prosecuted hundreds of cases from start to finish, including several jury trials. Later I found myself working for the DA's office in Calaveras County. Eventually I was granted a grant from the Office of Traffic Safety (OTS). Through the grant I prosecuted hundreds of DUIs with an emphasis on Drug DUIs, Felony DUIs, vehicular manslaughter and Murder cases(Watson murder). Eventually I was promoted wherein I was in charge of all the drug cases, anything from simple possession to sales, to labs and cultivation. As a prosecutor I've handled almost every type of case imaginable. I've successfully completed various trials at the misdemeanor and Felony levels. Now I use that knowledge to benefit my clients. I walk into a courtroom and already know what the prosecutor will focus on, what they'll offer and how they'll approach the case.

Sincere and thorough
Mr. Quintero made an awful experience into something tolerable. After a few drinks last year I made the mistake of getting behind the wheel. Next thing I know I'm in handcuffs. I thought my life, my school my job was over. Upon the advice of a friend I contacted Mr. Quintero. I also called a few ...
