“Ernesto, The Honest Lawyer”
Welcome! I am a fully bilingual (English and Spanish) California licensed attorney who honestly and compassionately represents clients in Personal Injury, Immigration, and Trust & Estate Planning. My goal is to bring justice and peace to clients of all backgrounds by being a zealous advocate.
I received my Juris Doctor from the Santa Barbara College of Law. I have a Bachelor’s Degree in Political Science and Spanish Literature (Distinction in the Major) from the University of California, Santa Barbara (UCSB). I obtained a Master’s Degree in Spanish Literature from UCSB. Although born in the U.S. I spent my early childhood in Choix, Sinaloa, Mexico. There, I experienced first hand the struggles of people, including family members, who were compelled to migrate North in search of the American Dream.
I humbly share that I, too, migrated in search of this dream. Now as an attorney I am blessed to use my knowledge and legal skills to bring justice and representation to those in need.
I am a member of the California State Bar. I am also a proud volunteer attorney at the Immigrant Legal Defense Center, where I get to advocate on behalf of juvenile residents of California’s Central Coast. When I am not practicing law or teaching, I enjoy cooking and traveling with my family.
