Attorney Information
Overview
I am an attorney from Bogotá, Colombia, with a background in labor, civil, and family law. I earned my law degree from Universidad de los Andes and have dedicated my career to protecting individual rights and promoting fairness in the workplace. My legal experience includes representing and advising employees in cases involving workplace disputes, discrimination, and unfair treatment.
I am fluent in English and Spanish, which enables me to assist clients from diverse backgrounds and help bridge cultural and language gaps in navigating the legal system.
I believe the law is more than a set of rules, it is a powerful tool to level the playing field and hold those in power accountable. My mission is to fight for employees' rights with diligence, compassion, and strategic advocacy, whether they are facing discrimination, harassment, wrongful termination, or other workplace injustices.

How do I choose a lawyer?
Consider the following:
- Comfort Level – Are you comfortable telling the lawyer personal information? Does the lawyer seem interested in solving your problem?
- Credentials – How long has the lawyer been in practice? Has the lawyer worked on other cases similar to yours?
- Cost – How are the lawyer's fees structured — hourly or flat fee? Can the lawyer estimate the cost of your case?
- City – Is the lawyer's office conveniently located?
Not sure what questions to ask a lawyer?
Here are a few to get you started:
- How long have you been in practice?
- How many cases like mine have you handled?
- How often do you settle cases out of court?
- What are your fees and costs?
- What are the next steps?
Want to check lawyer discipline?
It is always a good idea to research your lawyer prior to hiring. Every state has a disciplinary organization that monitors attorneys, their licenses, and consumer complaints. By researching lawyer discipline you can:
- Ensure the attorney is currently licensed to practice in your state
- Gain an understanding of his or her historical disciplinary record, if any.
- Determine the seriousness of complaints/issues which could range from late bar fees to more serious issues requiring disciplinary action.
