His License Was Put On Probation

Vega has had his license put on Probation. He is my ex wife’s attorney. I knew that after being questioned that there was the possibility that she could impeached. She is my daughter’s mother. Check the court camera right in front of Commissioner Keller Court Room. You will hear me, break down, and T...ell Vega that I am concerned his client, my ex-wife, was going to get impeached. Vega stated that he does not care if his client gets impeached. Vega stated It means nothing. Funny thing.. On 8/9/22. His Client, My ex-wife.. was impeached. I just didn’t want it to happen again.. for the best interest of my little girl Through Vega.. this divorce has taken over 4 years. It’s cost me over 70k.. my ex wife probably spent close to 175k. We are more dysfunctional now than 4 years ago. We probably have another 2 years, after the hatred he has placed between myself and my ex-wife, this will never end, and he will collect his paycheck. All can be confirmed in Court Documents

ultimately nice guy but horrible attorney

If you are questioning even one ounce to hire mr vega.. do not. He is not a fighter, he can’t even get names right in court, he does not communicate nor prep you for court or for what’s to come.. you are lucky to get a few words in.. he left out soooo much evidence & didn’t do anything to try and sav...e my family members from being taken. He is the reason we lost the case. If you want to keep your child in your care, DO NOT hire mr vega.

I lost my baby because of him

I had my consult and knew the case in full detail with every party involved. He felt confident that there's no reason I wouldn't be able to get the baby back and that it was good to have representation. He canceled on me Friday afternoon due to a conflict of interest when court hearing was Monday mor...ning. I had no representation for myself and I lost my baby. Should have read the reviews before consulting with him. I did at least receive my my money back, but I lost my child over it.

Rudest Assistants

I never met John Vega. I spoke to his assistant of 15 years. She’s a very angry rude woman. I also spoke to another woman that works there and she was also very rude. I never do reviews, but I felt the need to let people know that before spending thousands of dollars, they should go with people that... genuinely want to help. I should’ve of read the other reviews before even attempting to call this place.
