Angel was my lead lawyer at Desai Family Law which was the second law firm I hired after a five year ongoing divorce case. The first firm I hired was terrible and I'll just leave it at that. After an initial bad experience with the family law world, I decided to do my due diligence before hiring another lawyer, plus, I was doing pretty bad financially and couldn't really afford to hire any firm. Luckily, my ex-wife's situation wasn't amazing either and she had to drop her lawyer as well due to financial reasons, which resulted in both of us continuing our case pro-per. This led me to a two and a half year long journey where I had contacted dozens and dozens of family law firms and lawyers, getting as much free advise as I could and occasionally paying for an hour or two of consultation whenever I could afford it. In the process, I become very familiar with different lawyers all the way from the Valley down to Orange County. I talked and met with any type of lawyer you could imagine, from highly experience competent ones, to complete amateurs that were just trying to make a quick buck.
I contacted Desai Law about a year into my search and received a great consultation from one of their lawyers, but unfortunately didn't have the funds to hire them at the time. Fast forward a year and a half later, my case was on track to go to trial and my ex-wife got herself a new lawyer and so I found myself borrowing money and saving any penny I had, so I could hire one as well. I contacted Desai again and unfortunately, they were not available to take my case. After some convincing and after the the calendar of the owner, Swati Desai opened up, they were able to accept my case. Best course of events in my six year case (not a typo). We had a hearing coming up about a week after I had hired her. After an initial representation by Swati, their new addition to the team , Angel Camino, took the lead role in my case (my case was very complicated with many moving parts) and against my expectations that he will get up to speed so quickly, Angel became extremely familiar with my case in no time.
My case was set for trial, and Angel ended up settling before then and against all odds (I forgot to mention that my ex-wife received a pro-bono lawyer which meant she had zero overhead going into the trial and a low incentive to settle as a result).
Angel is an extremely competent, savvy, knowledgeable and most importantly - an honest and straight forward lawyer.
He is a master strategist and highly intelligent and at the same time trustworthy and really has your back.
My case involved a few businesses, another third party and had stretched over five years with an unbelievable amount of paperwork and court filings. Most lawyers I saw were deterred by the case due to its intricacy, but Angel took over it without a fling and delivered amazingly.
Can't recommend him enough.

Mr. Camino represented me in a very lengthy multi-year divorce dispute involving support, claims, a post marital agreement, and division of assets while battling it out with an extremely litigious ex. I was glad to have him on my side.
