Easy, painless and on point. What could be better?

Mr. Becerra was knowledgeable, succinct, and kind. He offered me very helpful recommendations and suggestions. He was well versed in the law and quickly gave me a thoughtful analysis. Should I have further need of his services I would not hesitate to do so. I would gladly recommend him to others....

PASSIONATE & EXCEPTIONAL ATTORNEY

I interviewed about 5 other law firms before I was introduced to Carlos Becerra from Tredway, Lumsdaine & Doyle to assist me with an ADA related lawsuit that had been filed against a property that I owned. After speaking with Mr. Becerra, I knew instantly this was the law firm that I wanted to use. ... Mr. Becerra was so personable, professional and even eased my mind with a touch of humor. Mr. Becerra genuinely cares about his clients and goes out of his way to do his very best. I surely will be working with him and the firm in the future.

Excellent Lawyer

Mr. Carlos Becerra secured a Settlement Agreement on our behalf in a tax case. Throughout the entire process, he kept us apprised of what was transpiring. He also offered excellent advice during this case. We will not hesitate to utilize the services of Mr. Becerra, if needed again, in the future....

Wonderful attorney that I cant thank enough. He knows laws impact the medical profession differently than tradtitional business

I hired Carlos Becerra, to help me get out of a mess my first attorney caused. I was an independent contractor in a medical group, and they wanted to terminate me. I was okay with leaving, but they bullied me into giving up protections given by the AMA and the Medical Board. The first attorney... I hired, clearly didn't know medical law like Carlos, because my first attorney said absolutely they can do this and you should sign the their termination contract immediately. There was no waiting, no thinking, no consideration. Well it turns out the majority was not enforceable and I needed help because it was impacting my ability to practice medicine and care for my patients. I retained Carlos and he was able to help me make wrongs into rights. After a lot of back and forth, depositions, and requests we went to mediation. I had never been through a deposition or mediation, which to be honest was quite scary. Carlos was able to help me stay calm and take control of the situation. Carlos was very reassuring and kept me thinking about the facts and what really mattered. Carlos knows MEDICAL LAW, like no other attorney I have worked with. My only regret is that I did not hire Carlos for my first attorney. He would have saved me a lot of stress and heartache. I am eternally grateful and recommend him in the highest regards. He is wise beyond his years, and has life experience of someone a decade older.
