"Hands down the best lawyer I could’ve asked for, I’ve had experience with a lawyer before and can tell the difference when I hired Genaro Cortez, he was very professional through out the whole process, very nice and easy to communicate with, right off the bat started asking the right questions about my case before I hired him, even more than other lawyers when I was looking to hire one, made me feel confident in my choice every time we spoke and most importantly, he was very easy to reach out to and get ahold of when ever I had a question or concern, this was the most important quality over all, since my previous experience with a different lawyer was the complete opposite, I felt the difference with Genaro right away, being able to deliver with more than what I asked for at the end of my case, would 100% recommend to anyone looking for a lawyer"

"Our experience with cortez sucked.. we hired him for federal case and would never keep us updated we had to call and ask him majority of the time he would act confused like he forgot what case we were asking about or would tell us not to call him so much because he was too "busy" as if we didn't pay everything upfront.. overall he made us feel like there was no hope for our loved one to get out ."
