Reviews to Castro Law, PLLC
I hired John Castro to be my attorney for two real estate closings which he agreed to do for a flat fee $600.00 each. I was never provided with any documents properly explaining the scope of his representation or his attorneys fees. In the middle of the transaction, I decided not to move forward with his representation. Mr. Castro was extremely upset about losing me as a client and vowed revenge.
At the time that I terminated Mr. Castro, I offered him $600.00 as fair compensation for legal work performed. Mr. Castro declined my $600.00 offer. A few months later, I received a bill from his firm that over two times in excess of our original agreement. He completely changed the numbers and now wants to charge me at rates, which were never discussed or agreed to. I was also threatened with lawsuits and liens on my property in the event I failed to pay the total sum demanded. Now I had to hire another lawyer to defend this matter. I also had to spend a lot of money out of pocket on the fee-dispute defense.
In my opinion, this attorney is totally unethical, dishonest and unscrupulous.

Castro Law is a great firm. I am the owner of MJ Optical, I had an issue with a big company that was trying to take advantage of me and I was recommended to Castro Law. They took a look at my situation right away-pointed out all the ways the big company was trying to take advantage of me. He took over the case and forced the company to reach a settlement with me. This law firm has a reasonable price and is not afraid of taking on big corporations.

I had a difficult tenant I wanted evicted asap. This firm was very helpful in solving my problem. They were courteous and knowledgeable. I was kept updated on the status of my case throughout the entire process and I am now problem free. I am very happy with the out come of my case and would happily recommend their services to any of my friends. Well done!

arrogant person trust me you do not want to have him as you lawyer who represents you. I went to him for consultation but this person have a lot of attitude and was not professional at what he does. he made me feel like i was a problem rather then solving my problem. so think before you want him to represent you.
