"I worked with attorney Maria Amaya on a case which involved both bankruptcy (one of my main areas of practice) and DUI/DWI issues (which is one of several areas Ms. Amaya focuses on). I had heard a lot about her from a mutual acquaintance and from working with her confirmed that she definitely is one of the sharpest attorneys in her area of expertise. Maria is smart, focused and quick to find the important issues that will be the focus of the case and determine the legal outcome. I'm glad I know her and will be consulting with her in the future as regards both DUI and personal injury issues. I can tell she is both knowledgeable and a fierce advocate for her clients."

"I, without reservation, fully endorse this lawyer. I have known her and worked on many joint cases with her over the years and can say that I have NEVER met a harder working attorney in all my experience. As far as I am concerned - from what I have directly observed - she cares more about her clients than any other in the Chico area. I seen her work weekend and evenings on a case going above an beyond in order to get the best deals for her clients. I've seen her on one case wait around an out of county courthouse to make sure the complicated orders were entered in the computer correctly for her client - had she not done so, they would have been wrong and she wasn't getting paid by the hour on the case and I know she made very little money on the case because she wanted to make sure it was done correctly. Most attorneys would have left and not stayed around and dealt with it later after it was discovered, but her experience told her not to. I have even sent my own relatives to her."

"I am writing this to let you know how much she can help. She understands how to beat the DMV, fight to save your license in court, and save you money. Through her experience in court, she knows knows the judges and prosecutors that will be handling your case. This means her local knowledge of the courtroom will make sure you are treated with respect and your case is handled correctly from the beginning. I refer cases to her in Chico, CA and the surrounding counties because I know she will not let you down. If you want a serious DUI attorney that concentrates on this area of the law, she might be the only person that can keep you driving."
