Stay Away from this Woman

She was assigned as my daughter's lawyer about five years ago. However, she did not give me her email, and certainly did not offer it to my daughter. Even though my daughter's counselor contacted her and explained the situation and progress, when we got to court Ms. Vargas said horrible things about... her in the court room. I would suggest that everyone keep his/her children away from her. She caused some irreparable damage to my daughter and to her relationship with her father. Also, when she was supposed to meet us in court, she was about one and one half hours late, I was paying my lawyer by the hour, and you can rest assured he charged me.

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.
