Excellent!

I needed case records that happened 24 years ago sealed. My case was thrown out but they still seemed to pop up at any government inquiry. I was referred to Erica by a friend, I never met her, & didn't need too. Erica always returned calls and emails super prompt. She handled everything I needed i...n a very timely manor and the cost was reasonable. I would love to say I would use her again... But I hope not to! But you should!!

Erica Madrid review

Everyone makes mistakes, and the law will have no mercy. That’s why I knew I needed a good lawyer. I found out about Erica through a good friend after I was arrested for Felony Evading Arrest, and Misdemeanor Exhibition of Speed. I had double headphones in and was riding a motorcycle extremely fast (...over 100mph). I admit I was speeding, and yeah it was stupid. However, I was not evading. The cop wrote some crazy and innacurate report. It came down to my word against his. The judge at the felony settlement conference did not believe a word of mine. I thought it was the end. The end result when pre -trial came was I plead down to two misdemeanors, no jail time. I paid a fine, and after four months Erica helped me get my record dismissed (expunged) and probation was terminated. Erica was not only a knowledgeable and helpful lawyer, but also fair priced. Thanks to Erica I was able to keep my job, and now advance in my career. Thanks Erica. I hope this helps whoever comes across this review.
