I was involved in a car accident while on the 91

This was my first time having to hire an attorney, but I was involved in a car accident while on the 91. Not knowing where to turn, I called around and found Mrs. Alvarado. She was very thorough, and was able to get alot of the problems resolved. I feel both her and her team were really on top of t...hings. I'm happy with the results that she was able to help deliver.

I really appreciate having her on my side

I feel she was very kind and professional when it came to her work. She's very detailed, gives updates often. I was going through a family law situation that was a bit overwhelming. She was able to get the matter resolved fairly quick. Highly recommend her.

WORST MISTAKE OF MY LIFE

Had my case for 2 years never said a word in court, never argued in my favor, missed court often, never gave me advice, inaccessible too many things to say. My case still going on 2yrs 3 months later because of her ineptitude. Only occations she would try to reach me (through her secretary) was whe...n I fell behind on payments. $9000 later I was broke and I could no longer pay her the remaining $6000 ($15000 total) so she decided to stop "representing" me without even letting me or the court know. Other legal advisers tell me my case is so easy it should've been solved in 1 or 2 three hearings maximum.
