Mrs. Hutchinson is very attentive and yet down to earth. She treats you as a person. Which, we appreciate and greatly respect. She is incredibly knowledgeable! If it is legalities not within her expertise field, she will recommend people to help in that area. Overall, she is our go to and respect her opinion greatly. We have been very pleased and are thankful to be one of her clients.

Diferentes abogados asta que alguien me hablo de Manuel Barrera... Muchas gracias siempre me contestaron I me alludaron para que el proceso del divorcio fuera rápido :) lo recomiendo

Super mal abogado no te defiende No se lo recomiendo a nadie primero te ase ver las cosas positivo y que bas a ganar y al final te deja sola. Lo unico que le importa es los pagos. Pense que era una persona confiable y profecional que decepcion y hojala no engañe a mas jente.

He is representing me on a custody/ child support case. My case is ongoing but my son is home with me. Mr. Barrera has done everything he said so far and is always on time. Most important he has been honest and upfront.

I am rating this attorney based on my own experience. If I could modify the rating, I would slightly lower it to a 3.5/5. I contacted Susan for representation of a small claims court matter. She was referred to me by another attorney under my legal plan who told me she was a small claims attorney. Initially Susan advised that she did handle small claims but later she said she did not. Her indecisiveness on representation is a main reason for wanting to lower the score. Susan is very kind and appears to have a decent understanding of laws, she generally wants to do good. She did not appear to be a very strong attorney for litigation but for consultative advice I would recommend her. If you are seeking representation in a complicated matter, I would be a little uneasy about recommending her, again this is based on my own interaction. It is possible that she is stronger in other areas than my case. The major thing that made me want to lower my score is that Susan said she would show up in small claims court on my behalf if I really wanted her to although she didn't think it was necessary for my issue but, in the very last moment she changed her mind. This was very disappointing. I knew that part of the reason was that there was really no money in the case for her but the ups and down of her commitment and to turn away at the last minute lowered my opinion of her as a professional. It is well within her right and judgement as a business woman to determine which cases make sense to take and which to decline but, Susan did not make a clear decisive decision , I thought she was going to show up, and would commit. We talked months after my consultation, to confirm her ability to still commit, right after my first mediation on a Friday to see if she could still be available and she said yes tell me when you get the court date. She called me on Monday and was still interested and wanted to schedule a follow up consultation. I asked her if we could schedule it closer to the court date so that we don't have to review again and she said okay. A few days later I got the court date. I e-mailed her the following Monday with the court date and called her but I got her voice mail. She replied in e-mail that she could not represent me on this case. I was completely in disbelief. I don't know if she had just got another case offering more money between those few days or what drew about the all of a sudden "ill pass" but it just didn't make sense to me. The only thing that came to mind although she gave an excuse was that she felt she would not make any money. Again, that's well within her judgement call and right but to go back on her word is not professional and therefore I'd not be able to recommend her for someone wanting litigation in a trial because I fear she might back out. Other than this, I would say, she is good for consultative guidance on a legal matter.

Rebecca came as a recommendation from a close friend to help with a real estate legal matter. Rebecca used a very professional and direct approach with this case. She gave us try realistic expectations and her advice turned out to be very helpful. If in the future we need an attorney, I would definitely not hesitate to use her services again.

Mr. Barrera is a terrific family lawyer. His many years of experience are an asset in court and mediation. Thank you Manuel
