Hired Attorney Ms. Teri Valdes

I had an excellent experience. Teri was incredibly fast and clear; she took the time to explain my case step by step, leaving no questions unanswered. What I appreciate the most is the sense of calm she gave me throughout the process. For someone who had never needed to look for a lawyer before (and honestly found it pretty scary), finding someone so professional and genuine made all the difference. I highly recommend her.

Teri was very responsive to my case -- she returned my correspondence within 48 hours and coordinated next steps with me via my preferred medium, phone or video call. Teri educated me on my options, and she made me feel empowered to take the next step with my case. She is knowledgable, personable, and I would definitely work with her again in the future.

Ms. Valdes is very knowledgeable and professional, after consulting with two other lawyers she made me feel so at ease. She is patient and very to the point. She is understanding of your time and her advice is very valuable. You can feel her sincerity. In this world of questionable lawyers she is definitely not one. I would recommend her 10 times over. I was very blessed to find her!

.was looking for a contingency lawyer. none seems to exists at your law firm. my case is for pension fraud, theft of services, breach of my contract with fl. retirement system. if you had faith in my case ,you would not charge me up front fees. i know that if this was a personal injury case , there would be no upfront fees. my case is approx one half a million dollars. you are not the lawyer for me.

Lawyers.com Client Reviews

Martindale-Hubbell® Client Review Ratings™ display reviews submitted by individuals who have either hired or consulted the lawyers or law firms.

The Client Review Rating score is determined through the aggregation of validated responses. People who submit reviews are either individuals who consulted with the lawyer/law firm or who hired the lawyer/law firm and want to share their experience of that lawyer or law firm with other potential clients. Reviewers can be anyone who consults or hires a lawyer including in-house counsel, corporate executives, small business owners, and private individuals.

Martindale-Hubbell validates that a reviewer is a person with a valid email address. As part of the review process, respondents must affirm that they have had an initial consultation, are currently a client or have been a client of the lawyer or law firm identified, although Martindale-Hubbell cannot confirm the lawyer/client relationship as it is often confidential. The content of the responses is entirely from reviewers.

Prior results do not guarantee a similar outcome and Martindale-Hubbell accepts no responsibility for the content or accuracy of any review. For more information on Martindale-Hubbell Client Review Ratings, please visit our Client Review Page

Martindale Peer Reviews

Martindale-Hubbell® Peer Review Ratings™ are the gold standard in attorney ratings, and have been for more than a century. These ratings indicate attorneys who are widely respected by their peers for their ethical standards and legal expertise in a specific area of practice.

The Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings process is the gold standard due to its objectivity and comprehensiveness. Lawyers solicited for peer reviews include both those selected by the attorney being reviewed and lawyers independently selected by Martindale-Hubbell. All reviewers are verified as attorneys through Martindale-Hubbell’s extensive attorney database. Only attorneys practicing at least three years and receiving a sufficient number of reviews from non-affiliated attorneys are eligible to receive a Rating.

What are the different Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings?*

• AV Preeminent®: The highest peer rating standard. This rating signifies that a large number of the lawyer’s peers rank him or her at the highest level of professional excellence for their legal knowledge, communication skills and ethical standards.

• Distinguished: An excellent rating for a lawyer with some experience. This rating indicates the attorney is widely respected by their peers for high professional achievement and ethical standards.

• Notable: This rating indicates that the lawyer has been recognized by a large number of their peers for strong ethical standards.

Lawyers who have received peer reviews after 2009 will display more detailed information, including practice areas, summary ratings, detailed numeric ratings and written feedback (if available). Details for individual reviews received before 2009 are not displayed.

Attorneys that receive reviews from their peers, but not a sufficient number to establish a Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Rating, will have those reviews display on our websites.
