Mr. Berriz represented my wife and I in connection with an automobile accident. He resolved the case efficiently and professionally to our complete satisfaction. I have worked with many attorneys over the past years since I am also an attorney and I can honestly say that Armando did an outstanding job for my wife and I.
He commenced legal proceedings quickly and explained the procedures and steps that would ensue; he prepped my wife when we had our depositions talen and handled the mediation session in a manner that enabled us to enter into a very satisfactory settlement of our case.

Car, trucking, work, falls, animal attack, assisted living neglect, dangerous product, defective vehicles, etc. are this attorney's passion. Accidents don't happen, they're caused . . . and this attorney will find a way to help his clients recover dignity and compensation from the at-fault negligent person or company.

I had a dog bite incident and was referred to Armando. Was the bet decision I have ever made going with him. He was very knowledgeable, very understanding, and very competing with the whole process. He handled my case very timely and kept me up to date with every bit of the process! I would recommend him to anyone!!

Hiring Armando was my SMARTEST decision
I have known Armando for almost 8 years. Recently my young child was injured in an accident. I immediately turned to Armando for personal and legal guidance. I had intended to handle this case directly with the insurance company and requested Armando give me some pointers as to what to expect when I spoke to them. After contacting the insurance company I knew immediately that I was in over my head. The insurance company seemed to be following a script and attempted to place blame on the accident, exactly as Armando had warned. I then hired Armando to handle this case.
Armando is a conservative attorney and I appreciate that quality. He KNEW exactly what the case damages were worth and proceeded to prepare for trial. Prior to trial we had the opportunity to enter into binding arbitration. Armando's preparation, performance and knowledge of the case were second to none and was REFLECTED IN THE AWARD at arbitration.
Armando is calm, prepared and completely professional, exactly the type of attorney I wanted for my child's case.
Hiring Armando protected my child's interests and saved my sanity. Thank you Armando!

Client Review
Armando was very attentive to my case and gave me a clear plan on how we would move forward. I am very thankful and lucky to have had him on my side fighting for me. He took the the time to explain how the legal process works and what would come next for me. I would definitely hire him again in the future if I need legal help.

Armando's AAA (ALWAYS ACCESSIBLE ATTORNEY)
Seeing that contacting an attorney is usually not under the best of circumstances, Armando's easy-going and down-to-earth personality makes it a sheer pleasure.
Whether its a last minute, urgent email or frantic phone call, Armando's amazingly always accessible. His email replies are almost instant and returns phone calls very quickly. It's nice to know he's in my corner in this unpredictable, crazy world we live in.

Great lawyer!
I was so happy to have found Armando Berriz. He and his team were so kind, efficient and reassuring, that they made a difficult situation for me much less stressful. It was so nice to be able to hand everything over to him, and know it would be taken care of. Got a great settlement with very little hassle. Would (and will!) recommend him again and again. It's nice to know that I now feel like I have a lawyer that I can count on in case something else comes up. Thanks Armando!
