Patient and gave advice
I called Luis about a car accident I had. I was looking for advice and he gave it to me. He broke down what the possible outcomes might be for my specific scenario and told me what my best next steps would be. Though I didn't have a case for him to take on, he was very helpful and understanding.

Extremely professional and did everything possible to make our family comfortable
Santiago is an awesome attorney. Throughout the entire process he was very engaging and sympathetic. Santiago kept our family in the loop the entire time and answered all questions at any given time. The case was dismissed and all charges were dropped. Highly recommend!

This person and his friend tried to sell me advertising on the internet. In this review they mention their sales pitch "a few more sites where actual verified clients"- After I used Avvo instead of their internet advertising services, these two people threatened me with negative reviews. I am sorry that they feel this way but this is not how business is done.

Tough attorney against Insurance companies
I contacted Mr Valencia when I was involved in a traffic accident and the clients insurance adjuster began harassing me saying that his client wasn't at fault. Mr. Valencia is a well educated, well spoken attorney who understood the fact of my case right away. The next day he called up the insurance ...
"I endorse this lawyer. This is an amazing lawyer who is very compassionate and sticks by his beliefs. He has stood up to some bullies in his defense for the underdog."
"I have worked with Mr. Valencia on several occasions and he was always the go-to guy when questions of law came up and we needed someone to make a hard-hitting closing argument. He is a fighter and someone I would want in my corner in any case in court. I endorse this lawyer."
