Attorney Joe delivers results

Attorney Joe is one of the best attorneys I've met. He doesn't just see you as a case number and he genuinely made me feel confident and showed how much he cares about helping me out during that difficult time. His knowledge is unmatched, and I've hired 2 other lawyers before with no success. He took... the time to explain everything in a way that is straightforward and concise. I'm grateful for the outcome on my case! Thank you!

Best Attorney Around

What I can say about Joe Coimbra except I believe he is the best attorney when it comes to his practice areas, he is excellent at what he does and if you seek representation, he would be the first attorney I would call. I have been a client of his over two plus years, for one reason or another, and e...ach time things just get done. We are still fighting another uphill battle at this current time but I know it is just a matter of time, before I come up on top and Joe Coimbra works his magic, yet again.

Best Attorney I've ever had in my life

I had a few run ins with the law and time n again I was referred to lawyers who didn't have no clue how to handle criminal law cases. After deailng with amateurs, I was blessed to finally find someone who cared and acutally knew what he was doing! Attorney Joe Coimbra! He is incredibly humble and hel...pful to his clients. He certainly has been to me. But most importantly he is AMAZING in the courtroom. He wrote up some legal motions that basically took down the government's case. I was let go, no convictions even. But it didn't end THERE! becuz of my rapsheet I was unable to find work and got saddled with some pretty bad stuff in my record. He worked up expungement motion, got me off probation off one of my cases. This guy is amazing. Totally comfrtable payment plan and he was well worth it. Would've paid him a whole lot more considering how good he is but he is super reasonable with fees. If U need someone to help clean up your record and take down a criminal case agaunst you, theres ONLY ONE man for the job who can make it happen for sure: Attorney Joe Coimbra. HIGHLY RECOMMEND HIM !!!!

Do Not here this attorney

I paid an attorney from this firm paid them $2000 and gave specific instructions that this had to be over as soon as possible and instead they extended extended and then my attorney refused to talk to me because I guess she was fired . He went into court and straight lied to the judge that he had bee...n my representation the entire time and didn’t know a dibble thing about my car asking for yet another extension. Luckily I was able to prove this and the judge allowed me time to seek better representation. But I was still out $2000 for little to nothing of work . Don’t hire them

Lorgio is a passionate and dedicated defense lawyer

Lorgio was hired by McGregor and Ernenwein half way through my son's case. At first I was nervous about a new attorney coming on board however Lorgio quickly gained my respect and confidence in his abilities. He learned my son's file and was up to speed on the legal issues faster than anyone could ...have hoped for. Lorgio was assigned to writing the motions for our matter, he did such a great job the Judge complimented him on his brief on more than one occassion. I probably wasn't the easiest client to deal with but Lorgio responded to my worries, concerns and ideas with the upmost respect. HIs passion for the law and the rights of criminal defendants is remarkable. His carrer in criminal defense may be just beginning but in time I believe he will become one of the most sought after defense lawyers in the South Bay.
