About Mr. Jason W. Estavillo

Jason W. Estavillo has over 25 years of experience representing his clients in a variety of legal matters including breach of contract claims, real property disputes and commercial litigation matters. Jason focuses his legal practice in the areas of foreclosure litigation and real estate law.

Jason’s litigation experience includes jury trials, bench trials, arbitrations, and multi-party mediation. He has tried numerous cases to verdict, and his clientele includes individuals, small to medium-size business, along with non-profit companies.

Jason is licensed to practice in California and Maine, and he is also admitted in each of the United States District Courts within California and the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals.

Prior to founding the Estavillo Law Group, PC, Jason worked for both large and medium-sized Bay Area firms. While working in these firms, Jason was exposed to the huge overhead costs most firms today charge their clients. Jason knew he could provide clients with the highest level of representation while not charging the enormous overhead if he opened his own practice.

Today, the firm has hundreds of clients, many of whom are in the foreclosure litigation area. Jason is the leading expert in the foreclosure litigation arena with over ten years of experience fighting for his clients and helping them hold on to their American Dream of homeownership. He has successfully gone up against big banks such as Wells Fargo, Bank of America, JP Morgan Chase, US Bank, The Bank of New York Melon, HSBC, Aurora Loan Services, Nationstar (Mr. Cooper) and several more.

Hired Attorney Mr. Jason W. Estavillo

Excellent attorney with a very competent staff. You are getting a full law office with Jason and not just one guy or one guy and a secretary struggling to manage a ridiculous workload. Their offices take messages and return calls in a timely and professional way.

Hired Attorney Mr. Jason W. Estavillo

This guy does nothing but file frivolous motions to waste client money - at best. His license was suspended last Sept for basically stealing clients' money, lack of proper disclosures. HE WAS SUSPENDED AGAIN in February 2025 https://apps.calbar.ca.gov/attorney/Licensee/Detail/188093

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.

For more information on Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings™, please visit our Ratings Page on Martindale.com and our Frequently Asked Questions

Avvo Client Reviews

Ratings and reviews are feedback from people who have either consulted an attorney about an issue (but may not have hired the attorney) or people who hired an attorney as a current or former client and provided their feedback to our sister site, Avvo.com.
