"BEST BET"

Atty. Camarata was a blessing to my family. He is informative and involved with his clients. The office staff is caring and responsive. Lisa, his office manager returns calls and is very professional. Mr. Camarata represented my son on a DUI case with injury. He explained the process to both my son ...and I every step of the way. He was personally present at every court date. I felt that his expert representation was important with the outcome of my son's case. I have only good things to say about Atty. Camarata.

Posted by anonymous | October 09, 2011 | Domestic Violence

Can't say enough good things...

I hired Mr. Camarata to defend me against allegations of spousal abuse. He was always available by phone or email and always did his best to respond to my many questions very quickly. I had previous experiences with civil lawyers that made me expect delay but Mr. Camarata was not at all like that. ... He began working on my case immediately and ultimately got my case completely dismissed without me having to do anything. I could not be happier and would recommend Mr. Camarata to anyone who needs the help of an effective, experienced, reliable and trustworthy attorney.

"I have known Joe for a couple years and I have worked with him on several criminal cases in San Diego. Joe is a true professional and dedicated to getting the absolute best results for his clients. Having spent some time as a prosecuting attorney, he knows the kinds of defense strategies to employ during negotiations and how to best present a case before a jury . This is an invaluable skill to have when dealing with criminal cases and something only gained by fighting it out in the trenches."

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
