About A.
Biography
I have been practicing law for nearly 16 years and graduated at the age of 21 from the University of San Diego School of Law in 2003.
I have represented hundreds and hundreds of clients in all areas of the law ranging from Criminal to Civil and in State and Federal courts.
Aside from operating my own legal practice I have worked for many successful lawyers in both civil litigation and criminal defense. I was also the Sr. V.P. of Business Affairs for , which at the time was the largest internet data center in Los Angeles.
I love going to trial and winning "not guilty" verdicts for my clients. I have won all manner of trials form civil litigation to attempted murder cases.
I enjoy representing clients and helping people in whatever capacity I can - from child custody law, juvenile dependency, DUI court, civil, drug, federal asset seizures and criminal cases.
I am known as a workaholic so I can be reached almost anytime on my cell at. I look forward to hearing from you!

Posted by Mario | March 11, 2020 | Domestic Violence
Not worth even a penny. I recommend a Public Attorney instead.
She was my DV lawyer and trust me, she may have the knowledge of our laws and probably some experience, I would rather recommend hiring a Public Attorney for your defense than spending thousands of your hard earned or loaned money to get her service. Do not make the same mistake as I did. I should...
