Her knowledge of the law was impressive, and her connection to the community is endlessly helpful. The most important thing in my many years of being her client was how responsive she was. I was able to reach her almost immediately each time I needed and she would follow up without fail on every item promised. She never over promised nor took the easy route. Too often people think an attorney will do it all for you - no - that's not how it works - you need to care about your own situation and put in effort to partner with your attorney. As long as you put the time into caring about your own future and are engaged, you will get one of the best available attorneys for representation in Angela. I strongly recommend her.

She always spent as much time as my father needed to explain her recommendations, and after his death she, and her associate Stephanie Woods, have been helpful and careful as we close out his estate. I cannot say enough good things about both of them. We are so grateful! (Re: the one star review saying that Laurie Hedrich is no longer licensed to practice law in CA - Ms. Hedrich has lived in Albuquerque for decades. I looked up her status, and the database says that she is no longer allowed to practice law in CA because she declined to renew her license after 30 years of paying dues and no misconduct of any sort. I think people are allowed to let their licenses lapse if they no longer need them!)

Do not hire William Hoskovec if you need dependable representation in a contested family law…read morematter. In my experience, when my case became most critical, I experienced conflict with my own attorney and was then left without representation at a crucial stage. I am still dealing with the consequences of that today. His withdrawal left me at a serious disadvantage in my case and, in my view, worked to the benefit of the opposing party rather than my own. I was left feeling unsupported and deeply disappointed. I also think it is important for prospective clients to understand that many of the older 5-star reviews appear to date back to the period when the firm operated as Cortez & Hoskovec, before Ms. Cortez retired. My own experience changed significantly after that transition. Around the same time the firm became Sandia Family Law, my relationship with Mr. Hoskovec became increasingly contentious, and he eventually withdrew from representing me during a critical stage of my case. Based on my experience, I would not recommend William Hoskovec or Sandia Family Law.

I had an in person meeting with attorney, Jose Perez. Jose charged a $250 consultation fee. Once we…read morefinished our meeting he made copies of documentation I had brought with me. He said he thought I had a potential case but would need to speak with his boss first. Jose said he would get back with me the next day by 9am. After not hearing back from Jose after 3 business days I called and ended up leaving a voice mail for him to return my call. I wanted to know if Berenson & Assoc wished to proceed with my complaint. After still not hearing back from Jose I left another voice message a week later. I never heard back from Jose Perez. He had no problem accepting my $250 payment but failed to provide any feedback after that. Communication is imperative with any law firm. Since I never heard any feedback on whether to proceed with my complaint after my consulation with Jose, I would not recomend this law firm.

I couldn't be happier with Attorney Les Sandoval. My experience with him has revealed him to be…read morevery ethical, upstanding and moral. I am so relieved that I didn't judge him by someone else's review. He has proven himself to be very knowledgeable and humble, both to me, and especially with the Judge. He is a rarity in his own class! He helped to bring a calm during my worst storm. He is an ASSET to our Community and here's why: Attorney Les Sandoval has displayed the meaning of integrity while advocating for my case throughout my very hostile contested divorce against a Liar who thinks he is above the Law. He has been to every hearing that I had, and has never jeopardized or neglected my case. Les Sandoval was up against my Ex's female Attorney who was cunning, sneaky, ultra combative, concealing, and proficient at twisting truth until it was unrecognizable. Even so, we prevailed against all manner of foul play by the opposing parties due to Mr. Sandoval's cool mannerisms, keen discernment of truth, and long term strategies. Les Sandoval does not strut around like a Bad Ass Know It All. He is not cocky or arrogant. He does not verbally abuse the opposition to make his points...he does not twist truth...he allows the opposing party enough rope and lumber to build their own Gallows. He does not file Motion after Motion to pad his wallet or make himself look better or intimidating. If you have been told that you need an aggressive "Pit Bull Lawyer" to win, think again. What does that really mean? Being a liar, insulting and aggressive in Court does nothing except to piss off a Judge. Just ask my Ex and his Attorney. A Judge can easily discern when an Attorney's pompous bravado is being employed in place of truth and facts All you need is a Classy Attorney that knows what a Judge is looking for...documented facts and the unvarnished truth. Attorney Les Sandoval has been very gracious and patient with my hundreds of questions, fears, and constant texts and emails. He has explained and answered all of my questions nevertheless. He did not sugar coat things nor imply to me that I was going to get my way on everything. He never caused additional conflict between either side in order to fatten his wallet. He is a Realist. If I didn't get something that I wanted, he explained why an issue was ruled the way it was by the Judge to help me understand. He helped me to keep my eyes on the much bigger and more important goals rather than the petty ones. Attorney Les Sandoval's goal is to give you your best long term outcome. If I had to describe his performance in a few words, it would be "classy and tactical". He knows when it is time to push...or when to stand down and wait for a better shot. He is wise as a serpent and gentle as a dove. He is a Christian Attorney that is rare of it's own merit. Attorney Les Sandoval will advise you to follow the Law that has been set forth by the Judge even if you don't like it...thereby saving you additional Court appearances and increasing Legal Fees. He will advise you how to behave in Court, making the opposition look like an embarrassment to the profession. Would I hire Les Sandoval if I had to do it all over again? Absolutely! I need not look any further!

If I can give 5 stars, I would. The best of the best. Excellent attorney in all aspects of law.read more
