Victor (y) Delivered!

We all make mistakes, and mine was a big one! He reviewed my case and walked with me through options I have. I was facing a Class B Felony- with a possible 5 year prison time. This is the first time I've been in trouble with the law, other than a couple traffic infractions. I truly was scared- ... He helped calm me down and through the whole process, I felt somewhat at ease. Given the circumstances. Instead of jail- and going through the process of a trial, I was eligible for a deferral of sentence. Meaning- I stay out of jail! Of course, I have some probation and community service I have to take, but all in all... that is definitely the lesser of the evils. Because of Victor, I have a chance to continue on with my normal daily life. I am a devoted family man, who made a grave mistake. Lesson learned and jail avoided.

"I've referred a number of my clients to Victor for criminal matters, and always been impressed with the level of his legal representation. In particular, I like that he's not just trying to plead out every case; he's not afraid to go to trial when it's warranted. I highly recommend Victor."

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.
