Absolutely Excellent !

Megan is very experienced, understood my sitiuation and applied the Laws fully in dealing with my case. She learned quickly and communicated in a timely manner and took her time yet very dedicated to her job and explained to me in a language that was easy to understand what was going on with my ca...se. Megan have such good rapport with me I felt so comfortable to speak with her. Her prices are reasonable and she worked with me.

Detail Oriented

This civil attorney is professional, detail oriented, realistic about the challenges involved in the case and extremely trustworthy. She consistently explains the most complicated legal matter to me in easy to understand terms. She is passionate about the pursuit of justice and clearly identified and... continues to identify the part I as a client must play in the legal battle. Her prices are competitive. This is the first time since I began this horrible ordeal that I finally believe I am being represented by someone who is competent, knows my case and is able to speak with me about its nuances and is equipped with a strategy to help me obtain financial renumeration. She is a breathe a fresh air when in the midst of something that's so emotionally charged. She will keep you focused.

GREAT !!!!

MS BAZURTO, my former attorney was a community lawyer? not good , my former lawywer was just awful.she had submitted answers to discoveries that were not mine or it was but said in a different way.. she failed to submit my written responses on side of leagal forms , she would talk to be as if i didn...t understand what she was saying, and every visit asking for payments. she not once asked me about the situation,nor did she listen to my reasons...and because of her lack in profession i have to ammend and gather certain importatant things pertaining to my defense..yet i had no idea where to start.. I found AVVO on the web looking for answers.. Ms Bazutro and other lawyers had given me some positve direction, Ms Bazurto was the only one who reached out and consulted with me.. i gave me a number to a professional pro bono attorney here in san francisco and directed me to an organization that can help me straighten things out and file the right forms. before consulting with MS Bazurto , i thought i had a good defense attorney, i thought i had a good defense ..now i am more than positive that i have a strong case , just need a good attorney.. thank you Ms BUzrto for consulting with me..although your practice is in sacramento you still gave me direction to help from dedicated , upholding , knowledgeable lawyers like you..

Satisfied with results.

I emailed ms. Bazurto yesterday regarding a tenant/landlord situation I was facing. She returned my call today in between her other clients, which I deeply appreciated. She had read my text so she was familiar with my needs. Our consultation may have only lasted lasted less than 15 min. but I receive...d a lot of helpful and informative advise from her. She was very easy to talk to and had me at ease the whole conversation. If I do need to pursue this or any other legal related situation i will have her number saved in my phone and will not hesitate to call. I'm grateful for the time ms. Bazurto took to help me and would recommend her at this time for anyone needing legal advise. Thank you so much.

Unlawful Detainer

We had a tenant who was trying to give us a hard time in vacating our property after giving them a 90 day notice to vacate. Megan Bazurto guided us on what to do in case we needed to file an unlawful detainer lawsuit against the tenant. Although we are in the Los Angeles area, Megan made sure w...e would receive all the necessary services in order to begin the process. She promptly responded to our emails, was very courteous, knowledgeable, and an expert at what she does. The tenants actually moved out before it was filed, but the information Megan gave us saved us from a massive headache fighting CA tenant laws. We highly recommend Megan Bazurto, she will not disappoint.
