You Need The Best lawyer Here She Is, Juliana Guerriero

I have been represented by attorney Juliana Guerriero. She is very professional while doing her job, whenever I have questions or need something to be explained she follows up with the answer within a day. She is very knowledgeable about her job, could not think of a better attorney to recommend.

The best of the best - Juliana Guerrriero

Posted by

I have been represented by Cantrell Green for my Workers Comp case. I was very grateful to get the best attorney possible. Juliana Guerriero was very professional and kept me up to date on a regular basis. I recently settled my case for an amount that was more than I expected. Juliana and her team were by far exceeding my expectations on a daily basis. In addition to Juliana her assistant Cindy Harris was also very helpful and always available for me every time I called with questions and updates. Look no further. She is the best. I will always recomend her to anyone and would give her ten stars. Thank you Juliana and Cantrell Green.

Current Client - Hired Juliana for Workers Comp Case

Posted by

Juliana is currently representing (we hired her and her firm) my family on a workers compensation case. We are currently in the middle of the case, but thus far Juliana has proven to be incredibly thorough with her advice as it relates to the ambiguous workers compensation policies, procedures, and processes. She has, thus far, guided us through the thousands of pages of legal jargon that my family had a hard time keeping up with. Juliana did it in a simple, easy to understand, way so as to not waste our time. So far, we are happy that we hired her.

When you need the best Lawyer...stop here. You found her!

Posted by

Juliana represented me in my W/C case for nearly two years while I was recovering from my work related injury. She supported and addressed my concerns promptly every step of the way. I never felt like I was an annoyance when I called. Every call was promptly responded to and often followed up in writing for clarity which I found helpful. Juliana is compassionate and even soft spoken towards her clients but don't let her kind demeanor confuse you. She is a true professional and goes after what you're entitled to with great tenacity. Your best interest always her #1 goal! I was very satisfied with how she handled every aspect of my case and was very pleased with the outcome. I I highly recommend Juliana Guerriero to anyone looking for an excellent attorney to represent them in a worker's compensation case. You won't be disappointed!

High Quality Representation

Posted by

Ms. Guerriero has been an outstanding advocate for me through the entire duration of my legal case concerning a worker's compensation claim. I was skillfully guided through all aspects of the difficult and complex process. Ms. Guerriero personally responded to all my questions and concerns within a day, I was never left wondering what was going on or what would be the next step. I found Ms. Guerriero clear and concise with explanations that kept me informed. I am very pleased with the results she was able to secure for me. I feel confident recommending Ms. Guerriero as an attorney and hopefully won't personally need an attorney's service again, but if I did, I would definitely use Juliana Guerriero again.

The absolute BEST at what she does!

Posted by

It was an absolute privilege to have received counsel from Juliana. She is dedicated to addressing the clients' needs. Juliana ensures that you are always informed about the progress of your claim and extremely competent in her efforts and tactics to get you the most suitable award for your industrial injury. I hope that I would never have to have another experience with workers' compensation, however, if I do find myself in an industrial circumstance in the future, I know that I can definitely get my concerns resolved with the legal support of Juliana Guerriero. I strongly recommend that you consider a consultation with Juliana if or when you will need the services of a WC attorney. You can't go wrong!

Compassionate lawyer

Posted by

I got injured at work. I was in chronic pain, scared and emotional. My life became unmanageable. I needed someone to help me surf the work compensation, the State disability system & understand my work rights. I googled lawyers and I got blessed with Ms. Guerriero. She listened to me, spoke in a soothing and compassionate voice, answered all of my questions and guided me through my whole case. Whenever I had a question or needed something, she and her assistance answered my emails promptly. I felt supported emotionally and legally by her. I also admired how classy she dresses and how humble she was with everyone who she interacted with at the court. Thank you Ms. Guerrero for the many years of quality service. You are the best lawyer!

Best Lawyer!! You are in GREAT hands with Juliana

Posted by

I want to thank Juliana Guerriero for her excellent representation. Juliana's professionalism was what everyone attorney should inspire to achieve. Unlike most attorney's I have dealt with, Juliana was always open-minded, courteous, respectful and easy to talk too; which is a stark contrast to most attorneys. One of many attributes of Juliana that stood out to me was she promptly returned phone calls and emails.... she never left me hanging on the limb waiting for a response; to me this was a trait that is hard to find in any business. Beside the interaction will Juliana, it is important to mention that she handled my case to perfection; delivering far better results than I could hope for or anticipated. After my case was finalized, Juliana instilled in me that there are great attorneys out there.... sometimes you have to get lucky and fined one as I did. I will close my review with this.... Juliana Guerriero is the epitome of a great attorney with integrity that really does care about her client; Cantrell Green is lucky to have her. Another Thank you Juliana. Sincerely, Kirk
