Atentamente gracias señora Abogada, excelente trabajo

Le daría un 10. La Abogada Erika es una persona muy sincera que sabe hacer su trabajo muy bien. Se la recomiendo a todas las personas que quieran empezar su caso porque ella es muy buena. Durante 24 años volví a mi tierra, se sintió bonito respirar y pisar tierra mexicana y estoy muy agradecido y cua...ndo vine de regreso me acordé de la abogada, me sentí feliz y contento de poder entrar a Estados Unidos sintiéndome libre y lloré de emoción.

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.
