I have worked with many attorneys over decades. It was a pleasure and relief to finally find an attorney who was intelligent, thoughtful, imaginative, and willing to work. Erika answered both phone calls and emails, and responded to messages. She knew the appropriate law and used it to pursue my legal needs. Who knew attorneys could do all this?

Domestic Violence Charges Dismissed in 10 Days
When a client was arrested for battery after an altercation with his girlfriend, he immediately contacted attorney Erika Valcarcel. The client was adamant that the entire situation was a misunderstanding, but nevertheless he was looking at a domestic violence conviction and potentially up to a year in jail. We acted fast on his behalf and discussed the situation with the State attorney’s office. We informed the prosecutor that our client's girlfriend did not want to proceed and highlighted the weaknesses in their case. Once they were aware of these developments, we successfully arranged to have the charges dismissed. This was all before our client's first court date and impressively all done within 10 days of the initial arrest.
