One word: AMAZING! Settled the unsettle-able. Great with clients. As mentioned in other comments plays no favorites. Disgruntled saps just dont follow his rules.03/13/2025 05:48 PMContact reviewer
130304Criminal Defense LawyerNo RatingOh, and as an aside, he had no idea of what a 998 was or how bad faith worked, and admitted that in chambers in a prior meeting. Pretty important if you are a civil judge hearing personal injury litigation.01/08/2025 12:31 PMContact reviewer

Employs a system based equally on stupidity and vanity. Keeps mentioning he served in the military as if that has some special meaning to his listeners. Is want to bring up some mundane chore he did around the house to use as a me...Read More10/13/2024 02:34 PMContact reviewer
127543OtherNo RatingI had De LA Cruz. He is the only judge out of 9 judges that are not super corrupt and gives fathers a chance and hope. Many single mom's believe they should have 100% care, control and custody meanwhile the dad should only be allo...Read More06/28/2024 12:11 PMContact reviewer
122996LitigantNo RatingThe decision to grant 50/50 custody in this case is deeply troubling, given the glaring discrepancies in the proceedings and the presented evidence. During the trial, a daily drinking log, which meticulously chronicled the father'...Read More10/23/2023 09:55 PMContact reviewer

106152LitigantNo RatingContrary to numerous case law he ordered that a child's therapist (hired by a controlling stepdad of extremely questionable character) dictate when she can see her grandmother. A judge is not allowed to relinquish judicial authori...Read More07/08/2022 01:42 PMContact reviewer
104520LitigantNo RatingDoesn't know the law so he cannot follow it. Should never have been appointed a judge dealing with peoples property and children. This Judge is rude and interrupts litigants while they are talking. He was relocated to traffic so a...Read More04/27/2022 09:53 PMContact reviewer
