Reviews for Antonio
Have you consulted or hired this lawyer?
Leave a review about your experience with this lawyer.Antonio and the firm are amazing. Trustworthy, knowledgeable, more than timely and down to earth. Couldn't be happier with him and a definite referral to anyone. He answers emails quickly and precisely. I have worked for lawyers for over two decades and he and his firm are the best. I definitely know the difference. Their fees were reasonable as well. I highly recommend him.
Mr. Maldonado is articulate, responsive, attentive to detail, and thorough in his knowledge of law for Mexico and the US. We have been totally appreciative of his efforts on our behalf and would recommend him to any prospective client!
I have been working with Antonio for over 10 years with business visas, create new businesses in Mexico as well as the United States, and other legal matters, and he has always been very knowledgeable and professional which is why I am still working with him as I write this review, I highly recommend him and his crew.
I have consulted with Mr. Maldonado and his law firm on various issues ranging from business formation to cross-border (US/Mexico) legal matters. Antonio and his law firm have exceeded my expectations every time I have consulted with them demonstrating honesty, integrity, knowledge, efficiency, professionalism, rapid response and continuous communication. I highly recommend Antonio and Maldonado Myers LLP.
Mr. Maldonado successfully defended our business in California from a lawsuit that should have been filed in Mexico and also in Mexico when it was filed there after having been "stayed" by the California court.
Very bright lawyer. Highly recommended.
