From the second I went for my free consultation, I knew Padilla Law Firm was who I wanted to represent me. The staff are both professional and friendly, and Mariah herself kept me informed at all times, all while remaining warm and encouraging and taking my case seriously at the same time. The payment plan was very reasonable and easy to access, and with their help my case was dismissed after a few simple court experiences. For anyone with legal troubles who needs someone reliable and friendly and fierce in court, I would absolutely recommend Padilla Law Firm.

Truly blessed to work with an amazing TEAM. When people retain a lawyer typically it is because of a complicated/frustrating situation . Having worked with Padilla Law Firm specifically Maria Padila to handle my situation, was the best thing I ever did. The weight was taken off me and I trusted them to get the job done and honestly I could not be happier. I would highly recommend this firm.

Maria was an excellent attorney! A year ago I received a letter in the mail from Maria after I had gotten charged with DWI. From the first meeting with Maria I knew she meant business. She explained the process that I would be going through the following months. She kept me informed for every step. First battle we conquered was the MVD hearing. After she had attended the meeting she called to inform me that I had won that hearing. After that we set up for trial. She reviewed my video and discussed options with me. She discussed the odds of me winning the case and what would happen if I had lost. About a week before the trial she met with me and explained what would happen the following week. Having Maria in the court room was the best feeling. She gave me a sense of comfort and confidence that I know I would not have felt with anyone else. She fought hard for me even when the odds did not look like they would go in my favor. However, through her perseverance we won a case that had about a 10% chance of winning. Thank you Maria for all your hard work and care that you put into my case and in dealing with me as a client!

Maria Padilla has been a GODsend to my legal situation. I put my faith in her and she did not disappoint! I was worried and scared thru the whole ordeal ; She put her skills and her will to fight on my behalf in order to get me the best possible outcome. And I am eternally greatful for what she was able to achieve for me and my future. Not only did she prove herself to be the best for my defense, but I had talked to other attorneys whom said I was in the best hands possible. If you need a defense attorney, I highly recommend using the Padilla law firm services and the affordable payment plans that they have in order to get the best results possible. Maria cares and will not let you down. You need her skills and good heart to fight for your rights and get you through hard times and to moving past the threats of charges that can impact your life and future!

Are you a freak that got arrested for doing nothing more than letting your freak flag fly? Do you need a lawyer that understands it isn't illegal to just be weird? Well, if your weirdness got you sent to the big house, call Maria. She will look at the details of your case and honestly tell you your options, without judging you before the judge does. In fact, she knows all about those judges: they are weird, too, and each has their own peculiarities about handling cases. Maria will help you get the best options for your judge, and make sure that judge knows that you, as a proud oddity, are understood, not persecuted. In addition, she will spend lots of time preparing for the ins and outs of your case, and she will make sure you are prepared, even if it cuts into her personal time. In conclusion, I had a case for which I was given a 95% chance of losing, and yet, by highlighting my special qualities, she helped me win in one of the toughest courtrooms in Albuquerque Metro Court. Smart and beautiful and nonjudgemental: a hard-to-find combination nowadays.

Maria is amazing. As soon as I was in her office, I felt the weight of my concern toward my legal issues disappear. She worked well with the condition I was in and adjust her schedule to fit me in. She made the payment very reasonable even with my situation I was in. I can not ask for better representation. After what she has done for me, I can expect her to do lots for the people who seek fair person to be in there corner when the odds are against them. Thank you so much for everything Maria Padilla.

Maria is not only a smart, assertive, and highly competent attorney, she is a wonderful person! She informed me of all the possibilities with my case, yet reassured me and eased my anxiety tremendously! My case was rapidly dismissed because of her attentiveness. I felt like Maria made me her top priority! She truly cares about people and has a palpable passion for law! I highly recommend Maria! God bless her!

An absolute Ace. Her prices may seem high at first but when the time comes she's worth every penny. She's fierce in the courtroom and works hard to ensure you are well covered for whatever may come up. If you're in trouble, and need a way out, I highly recommend Maria for all your law needs.

I met Maria at the dealership I used to work at. She was great at getting a good deal. She told me to call her if I ever needed legal help. I did end up needing her help and she really help me out to reduce my charges. I enjoyed her help so much that I referred a friend that got himself into a similar situation. I would definitely recommend her to anyone else that needs legal assistance.

My husband went in to speak with Maria Padilla for a consultation. She was unprofessional and spoke to him in a very condescending manner. As he was leaving she told him “good luck with your jail time” he has only ONE misdemeanor charge. No one should ever speak to someone that way regardless of record it’s unethical. And lying saying he got “violent” why wouldn’t you call the police right then if he was violent, just because you don’t like the review! Now your making up things! If you knew he had no intentions on hiring you to represent him that should have been the end of your legal advice! That’s enough mis-information! Exodus 20:16 “Thou shalt not bear false witness” Why would anyone want to go back there?!

Best law firm to go to if you're in need of help she will let you know exactly what to do for you're specific case. She will be with you and help you threw out the whole process from beginning to end. Number 1 in Albuquerque no doubt about it.

Very unprofessional. Not at all compassionate as her letters imply, never asked me what happened. Did advised me to “shut my mouth” instead of listening to me. Spoke over me several times in the 5min consultation. Her approach Is typical cliche scare tactic most lawyers take. Also Intimidation of a witness is not domestic violence please DO NOT misinform future clients! Trust me I would never return to such a place, operated out of a back door in an alley.. After her aggressive disgusting behavior, anyone would be offended. I will be reporting her to the state bar of attorneys She should absolutely not be practicing law, explains why the office is empty on a friday. I immediately tried to leave after she asked me to “shut my mouth” and she harassed me all the way out the door. The only violent person is Ms Padilla herself

I hired Maria and she was very professional and on top of everything in her discovery and throughout my hole case. She got my case dismissed and was confident through the hole process. I Won’t go anywhere else, for legal representation she is very experienced and knew exactly what was best for me. Her dismissal rate speaks for itself.

Maria is very knowledgeable and highly respected within the New Mexico judicial system. She has made my litigation process as easy and least stressful as possible considering the circumstances. I've dealt with other attorneys in past cases but none have made me feel as confident and comfortable as Maria. I highly recommend her and if you don't decide to go with her as your defense attorney I wish you luck and your probably going to wish you hired Padilla law firm! Keep up the great work Maria it is highly appreciated

I hired Attorney Maria today because I felt she was really concerned about getting my case dismissed and firmed on what she thinks my case is going to be. She is very professional and upfront. Thank you for taking my case. I know the Lord Jesus wants to take and handle my case but since He can not come down from heaven to do that, He led me to you to handle it for Him to make all this go away. Again, thank you in advance for the already predetermined outcome of this case.

My pregnant girlfriend is in jail for something she didn't even do she hired Maria Padilla to be her attorney but Maria says that as far as she concerned the case is over and that if we want her to show up to represent my girlfriend in court that it'll be another $500!!! So yeah if you wanna end up in jail on a bogus probation violation that never happened and then be hit up for $500 just to have your paid attorney see the case to the end then hire these scam artists!!!

Despite what other review was on here I've known the Padilla family since I was a child and they are fair and just. They go out of their way to represent their clients as well as bring them to the word of God in the process. You should be grateful to have been represented by them at all. Also they are the fairest when. It comes to chargomg for their services so I feel bad for you Mr. ORTIZ whatever crime you committed you can't just pay your way out of it. Sorry not the way the law works. I wish you peace and love because you need it

Be careful with Rafael Padilla he will talk about his bible all the time but all he does is lie about who he really is and what he does to get money. If he is losing a case he will just ask you for all the money and let you loss and keep showing you his bible just like his sister and almost all of his family.
