Best Law Firm!

What a Law Firm. Honestly, I was at the lowest point in my life. I felt like all hope was lost. Not just with this criminal case but just overall. I was so sad. And then, I made the mistake of drinking and driving. I was involved in a very serious crash and I was told that Jail time was una...voidable. This attorney never over promised me anything but he just seemed very truthful about doing everything within his power to get me the best results. And I let him do his thing. No jail and is the case is closed, now I can move on with my life. What an amazing team, all of them, Ana, Karla, Destiny, thank you so much.

Thanks

I want to write this review to say thank you to everyone in the team. It wasn't just the attorney who helped but it was the paralegals and supporting staff that played a big part. Thank you so much Veronica for pushing me and making me see the severity of the problem. I would have never started... if it wasn't for you. Thank you for keeping me out of jail and letting me return back to my day to day life. The Cespedes Law Firm is for real!!

They did a great job

When this first happened I didnt know what to think. All I know is that I was scared. I’m a father of three and the only one bringing money into my house I knew for dang sure jail was not an option for me. I was stressed and scared and honestly didn’t know what I was going to do until I found ...this law firm. The Cespedes Law Firm came through when I needed it most. I was dealing with a Felony DUI charge and I knew that jail was hanging over my head. From the jump, they took my situation seriously and understood what was on the line for me and my family. They didnt baby me or sugarcoat anything they were just real with me. The firm and their team handled business and helped me get my license back so I could keep working. Their team was always on point. Every time I called, they answered my questions and never made me feel like I was annoying them, even when I was stressing. Being able to take care of most things over the phone helped a lot since I couldn’t afford to miss work. I know I wasn’t the easiest client, but they stayed patient and had my back the entire time. I’ll always be grateful for what they did for me and my kids. This firm really saved my future, thank you once again!

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.
