John Nicholas Vega

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.

I hired Mr. Vega and the amount of unprofessionalism and overage charges have been a constant issue. He never contacts me after court cases to explain what the outcome was and when I have communication through email, I end up being charged a thousand dollars for a few emails. He doesnt take the time ...to actually help the case but rather show up and act as if he had planned some sort of dialogue. His office is crummy and there's no going around it. I had to chase the assistant to get information. If you want a lawyer with open communication and effective procedures, this guy isnt it. If you ever do speak to him outside of the court room, be expected to be over charged for every word. I have wasted so much money without any sort of progress. I wanted to fire him as a lawyer but it took two months for the assistant to even tell me I cannot and they need to file paperwork to do so. This office is a joke.

Mr. Vega came to us highly recommended by another attorney, so we reached out to him immediately and set up a consultation to review a case we were involved in. Mr. Vega and his Legal Assistant, Mirella, were immediately responsive. Mr. Vega heard our story and shared his perspective - we knew right ...then that we needed and wanted his help. Right away, we knew we'd hired the right attorney. His knowledge and expertise helped to guide us throughout a very long, often difficult, always stressful case. He and Mirella were responsive to all of our questions. They made sure our paperwork was complete and met each of the court's deadlines. And Mr. Vega helped set our expectations for each court hearing. At each hearing (and there were many), Mr. Vega sat with us and quietly explained what was happening (because it wasn't always obvious). He was reassuring but not placating. He made sure we had the facts and helped us to understand the nuances of decisions. Whenever there were opportunities to participate in court hearings, Mr. Vega was confident, respectful, and thorough. He also took a very positive approach to the case, even in the darkest hours. He never disparaged other parties but rather took a calm, logical, and respectful approach to all aspects of the case. This helped us stay focused on what was important rather than what was dramatic or emotional. Mr. Vega always returned our calls (if he wasn't able to take them when in office) and Mirella, a wonderful calming presence herself, made sure he always got our messages. Both of them responded to emails timely, even when our emails were very, very long and full of questions. I honestly don't know how we would've gotten through the case without either Mr. Vega or Mirella. We are eternally grateful. Because of their hard work and dedication, we have an incredible family. I can't recommend them enough!
