Emmitt Armijo

Trial lawyer

Most cases settle. When yours shouldn't, you want someone who is comfortable in front of a judge.

I take the firm's cases that go to a contested hearing or to trial. I read the video and the test records closely, and I tell you plainly what the evidence does and doesn't show.

I work in English. When a client prefers Spanish, Corina or Rosendo joins every meeting and sits with us at the table in court.
