Dedicated and true to his word

I was involved in a freeway accident while riding my motorcycle. After talking to Mr. Rapel about pursuing a case, he left a good impression with me. He was confidence, knowledgeable, and professional. I decided to enlist Mr. Rapel’s services, and was happy to hear that he would not ask for a singl...e penny throughout the whole process. He arranged for me to see a chiropractor for two months at no cost to me. He was dedicated and tenacious with my case and successfully won a substantial settlement for me. I whole heartedly recommend Mr. Rapel for your legal needs.

Relationship: Worked together on matter

"I have known Mr. Rapel for many years. I had the pleasure of working as co-counsel with him in a criminal matter involving co-defendants and serious felony charges. His grasp of criminal law and negotiations helped to broker a very generous plea-bargain agreement for all defendants. The Judge even commented on the record that our clients had received an exceptional deal. I wholehearted endorse Mr. Rapel"

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.
