I highly recommend Attorney Ryan-Cruz for all of your business and intellectual property law needs. She is professional, efficient, and very knowledgeable in her field.

My wife and I recently bought a condo in Mira Mesa. We were leasing the condo from the owner for over a year. One day, the owner told us that she was moving out of CA, and hence, she was selling the condo, so she was giving us our 30 days notice to leave, or an option to buy. Since my wife and I were already considering buying, we started dealing directly with the purchase as a FSBO. It was our first time buying real estate, so we had tons of questions, we didn't understand how the escrow process worked, neither our rights as tenants of the soon to be sold property. So we decided to look for a real-estate attorney. After speaking with Ruth, both my wife and I felt very confident that she understood our needs, so we hired her, and that was one of the best decisions we took during our purchase. From the first call, Ruth was very patient, gave us very clear advise on how to proceed in our situation. Once hired, she immediately went over our purchase agreement, she was very thorough, pointed at errors and gave recommendations. On top of it, she had an amazing response time. A lot of people who have dealt with the escrow process have told us that you end up signing a lot of documents, that you don't have any idea what they meant. We didn't feel that way. Whatever document we sent to Ruth, she explained carefully what it was for, and gave recommendations on how to fill it out. She also guided us over what documents we had to ask the owner, the agents, escrow officer, etc. The purchase of the condo was finally successful, and we look forward to work with Ruth on our will. It goes without saying that we highly recommend her.

Ruth is my real estate attorney and my family’s estate attorney. Ruth is an excellent human and an excellent attorney. She is very sympathetic towards her clients and also can be an amazing devils advocate. She understands every single side of the legal situation brought to her. She is sharp! She put my family and I at ease and made us feel comfortable during a very uncomfortable transition. She is a unicorn in the legal field, it is very rare that attorneys are legally creative. Ruth is a very creative attorney who has a powerful grip on the law, empathy and bigger picture. The thing that I love about working with Ruth outside of her high emotional IQ, is that she is rational and gives you polar opposites of possible outcomes. I look forward to working with Ruth for many years to come and I highly recommend her!

In all my life I have never met a more genuine and compassionate group of professional people. Gene Bruno and His team are head and shoulders above the rest not only for their knowledge of the business and the way they care about the clients, but also in how they carry themselves as a team overall.   Ladies and Gentlemen this firm knows how to take care of people and get the results you would expect.

Ruth Ryan-Cruz is a true professional. My husband and I are first time homebuyers. At the time we contacted Ruth, we were overwhelmed with paperwork. Even though we were a week out from closing, we wanted to do our due diligence to make sure we didn't overlook anything. That's where Ruth stepped in and provided a quick turnaround so not to delay our closing. In this sellers market, the home buying timeline moves fast. Unfortunately, our realtor did not take the time to provide an overview of the process to prepare us. Ruth on the other hand, was able to review all documents, explain the series of paperwork we signed, point out any issues (luckily there were none), and provide additional websites important to reference as homeowners. The day I reached out to Ruth I was stressed and frustrated. After wrapping up our final call, I feel completely reassured and confident about our first purchase. Thank you Ruth for translating jargon and legalese into plain English that everyday home buyers could understand. I highly recommend Ruth Ryan-Cruz Law for assistance during the home buying process!

The entire Bruno team deserves outstanding recognition for going above and beyond. My case manager, Marissa, was always caring, courteous and prompt. My attorney, Andres, was always there to calm my nerves, answer any and all questions I had - no matter how minuscule and was alway there to fight for me. Do not look any my further and choose Eugene Bruno & Associates!

I was in a tough spot and my PD told me to take a deal. I contacted Leo and he guided me through the process. I can't thank him enough - saved me from taking a bum deal and helped preserve my record!
