Bio

As a graduate from the U.C. Berkeley School of Law, I have been proudly serving clients in Southern California since 1994. That is over 30 years of commitment and case experience. I began my career as a Deputy Public Defender in San Diego and later in Los Angeles before beginning my own private practice in Pasadena in 1998. Since then, I have achieved numerous accolades and achievements including: served as President of the Los Angeles Criminal Courts Bar Association (2006); "Nation's Top 1%" of attorneys by the National Association of Distinguished Counsel (2015-2025); "Top 100 Criminal Trial Lawyers" by the National Trial Lawyers (2020-2025); and "Top Best Attorneys" by the American Institute of Personal Injury Attorneys (2023).

As the founder of Escovar Law, APC, I have dedicated my legal career to "fighting the good fight," and have represented clients in high profile trials, appeals, and have appeared as a legal commentator on multiple Spanish-language television networks, including CNN Español, Telemundo, and Univision. My expertise and practice include Criminal Defense, Post-Conviction Relief, Personal Injury, and Wrongful Death matters on both the State and Federal level. I have successfully handled thousands of cases throughout Southern California and have represented clients in more than 80 Jury Trials to verdict. My legal team and I over at Escovar Law, APC continue to ensure that all clients are met with compassionate guidance that recognizes the unique aspects their case brings and is treated with personalized, attentive legal advocacy every step of the way.
