What this firm has earned Every one from a measured value, with the evidence behind it

LFL Certified 2026

Scored 70 out of 100 on measured evidence, above the 70 this tier requires, with every eligibility gate its state allows us to check cleared.

No public discipline

No named attorney carries a disbarment, a suspension or a disciplinary resignation on the State Bar of California's record, across the 12 we identified. Administrative suspensions, which the State Bar states are non-disciplinary, are not counted here

756 client reviews

Counted across 5 verified Google Business Profile listings, not collected by us and not solicited through us.

4.9 average over 756 reviews

A high rating is easy at low volume and hard to hold at this one. Pillar C scores it against the market rather than against five stars.

Service in Spanish

Published by the firm on its own pages, which is how this was measured rather than assumed from a name.

G3 Entity & officeNot published by CA5 physical locations verified on Google Business Profile. California publishes no business register we are able to query, so the registration itself is not verified here. The state's own business search is the place to check it.

G6 Footprint756 public client reviews across 5 Google listings, above the 10 minimum, and the firm's domain has been registered since 2019-03-07, so it has been operating for more than a year

What the firm publishes itself

Results are specific to their facts and do not guarantee similar outcomes. Firms submit results through their claimed profile; only results we can substantiate are published with amounts.

Attorneys 12 attorneys · every licence checked against the California attorney register · 4 more people are named by the firm without a role, so we do not call them attorneys
