I had the pleasure of working with attorney Manjula on a complex legal matter, and I cannot speak highly enough of her expertise and professionalism. From our initial consultation to the resolution of the case, she demonstrated exceptional legal knowledge and a deep commitment to achieving the best possible outcome.Manjula is not only a skilled attorney but also an effective communicator. She took the time to thoroughly explain legal intricacies and potential strategies, ensuring I was well-informed and involved in decision-making throughout the process.Her attention to detail and strategic approach were instrumental in achieving a favorable result. I highly recommend Lamano Law to anyone seeking a dedicated and knowledgeable lawyer who genuinely cares about her clients interests.

Attorney Lamano came highly recommended to me, and my experience with her confirmed her reputation as both incredibly capable and caring. She was easy to get a hold of in a time of need, helped walk me through the challenges I was facing as well as gave sound advice on when to best involve various parties so that I am best represented but also make sound financial decisions. I’m very grateful

I am immensely pleased with the outcome of my case! I was in fear before I contacted Ms. Lamano. After speaking with her, Ms. Lamano’s confidence and reassurance immediately put me at ease. I also appreciated Molly a lot for answering any questions I have promptly and thoroughly! I highly recommend working with Lamano Law!! The entire firm has your back!

Called Lamano Law at 4pm on.a Friday to see if they could help get a case off my record from the 1990s. They went above and beyond by getting a hold of a DA to see what was up with this ancient case, BEFORE the courts closed and called me back with the update. These folks are the REAL DEAL. I rarely give 5 stars but this is well deserved. Some super smart women of colour here and I love that so much!.

I was in a bind legally and was not sure where to start. I contacted Lamano Law after speaking with other Attorneys who werent responsive. I spoke with Givelle and received the best advice. I felt at ease as soon as I spoke with her. She is very knowledgeable and helped my matter go smoothly. Givelle and her team are all very responsive and professional and really care about the people they work with. I am so grateful for all of her help and would definitely recommend her services.

Givelle Lamano is the best. Her attention to detail and how much she cares about people really show when you meet her. I knew within a few minutes of meeting her that she was smart, direct, and trustworthy. If a friend or family member ever gets into trouble, her firm is at the top of my list.

Givelle is smart, caring, and passionate about helping and empowering others.

If I could give Lamano Law 10 stars, I would without Hesitation! I am so incredibly thankful for such a Great Team! I was going through so much at the time of my incident and for them to step in and take full control of my situation and handle all of my problems for me, without me having to worry was such a Blessing. They took care of EVERYTHING and notified me of EVERY single detail. I had actually called another Law Firm as well and after speaking to that Law Firm, I knew Lamano Law was the one to pick. Givelle gave me a step by step of what I would need to do and expect on my very First call with them. She was absolutely GREAT and is very hands on!! She made me feel so comfortable from the Start!! I also got to work with Manjula as well and she is absolutely Fabulous! She is so detail-oriented in my case and even alerted me of any situations that could possibly arise. Some, I wasnt even aware of! Im so grateful that I had happened to stumble across Lamano Law when I was researching Law Firms. I seriously am so incredibly thankful for this Team! Thank-you so much Givelle, Manjula, Claudia, & Team!!!

I have had the pleasure of working with Givelle Lamano, of Lamano Law Office during our time together at Entrepreneurs Organization, where professionals come together to strategize on improving business processes and adding value for their clients. It is immediately obvious that Givelle is detail oriented, responsive and dedicated to helping her clients at a moments notice. Her mantra, easily stated is that she keeps people out of jail and that is exactly what she does. If you or someone you know needs immediate support and wants to work with a company that cares about helping their clients quickly as well as work with you to ensure the future is clear of run-ins with the law, look no further. She understands the feelings her clients have when they contact her office for help, she is compassionate to their situation and works to deliver speedy resolution. Above all, she is personable and doesnt judge and leads a team to value these important assets when it comes to handling sensitive cases. Anyone could get caught in a situation where they need someone that is a good listener, and knows how to get you out of a bind. Call Lamano Law Office! Her and her team are reliable and ready to help at a moments notice!

Givelle and her team are amazing. I have never been in trouble and was absolutely clueless and terrified as to what to do next. The Lamano team went above and beyond to make sure I felt completely taken care of every step of the way. Their genuine empathy, concern and patience for their clients put them in a league of their own. I’m very thankful that I found the Lamano team. I doubt that I would’ve had as great of an outcome for my situation with any other group.

Givelle Lamano is a remarkable criminal defense attorney and I would highly recommend her to anyone! She is very personable, helpful and is always ready to answer any questions you may have. Givelle is incredibly knowledgeable and will fight to help you with your legal problems. She will even break down the entire legal process to you to ensure you have a full understanding of what to expect. I liked her direct and honest approach in informing me all the potential outcomes that could occur with my case. Thanks to all of her advice and hard work, I had a great outcome in my case!

Giving Givelle and her team a 5 star rating because that’s as much as it allows me to! If I could give them more I would because they definitely deserve it! Givelle and her team are amazing! They work hard and everyone should know it! They are very thorough and it is obvious they care about their clients. They always make you feel comfortable and make sure you are up to date with everything going on behind the scenes. You will always feel completely taken care of every step of the way. Hopefully you never get in trouble but when or if you do, this is the team you want in your corner! Very thankful that I found the Lamano team. Super happy and satisfied with the outcome of everything and it couldn’t have been handled any better. Thank you Lamano Team!

I spoke with Givella about a matter involving an officer of the courts who was spreading false and defamatory statements about a party. She provided sound and actionable advice. I highly recommend her.

Review №31

2018-08-20 23:10:12

I have witnessed Givelle in court challenge the judge, district attorney and anyone else who stood in the way of justice for her client. But Givelle is not just fierce and a force to be reckoned with, she is also level-headed, reasonable and compassionate. She knows how to get the best results for her clients - whether she needs to fight it out in court or use a softer approach and negotiate with the prosecutor. Without a doubt, I would recommend Givelle Lamano, she is the first person I would call if I was in trouble!

I would like to recommend Lamano Law office to anyone who is having some legal difficulties. They are so professional and responsive. When I called the very first time I was greeted and taken care of by Givelle. She was very informative, courteous and professional. My case was assigned to Manjula Martin who worked hard for the best outcome for me. My gratitude for you ladies and also to Paulina Maldonado who was always in contact with me keeping me informed on everything. Overall my experience with Lamano Law was nothing less than oustanding. Thank you!!

I had a very good experience with Givelle Lamano and her team. They were friendly and straightforward; they dont use gimmicks or dishonest tactics like other cheesy attorneys. Givelle walked me through the process in a way that was unpretentious and easy to understand. I did not have to step foot in court at all, and I trusted that she and her team were handling my case well. They kept me updated every step of the way to minimize stress, and I was never left wondering about the status of my case. In the end, the resolution of my case was fair - and I had peace of mind that I could move forward with my life. Ultimately, I found that the price for Givelles services was fair, and that her team was competent, knowledgeable, and honest.

Givelle is honest and straightforward with you, a clear communicator from day one. She will do everything she can to get you the best possible outcome, and her team, Paulina, Ebony, and Jo-Anna work just as hard and communicate just as well. The whole office makes sure you are well-informed and comfortable with what is going on in your case. I felt taken care of and that someone was truly on my side. Also, I even had a police officer comment that I must have a really good lawyer when he saw the outcome of my case (how much community service I was sentenced to). Would recommend this law office to everyone.

I hired another attorney initially who filled me with fear, dread, and a sense of hopelessness about my situation. I hired them out of that sense of fear they instilled, then I felt like I was ignored after paying their retainer.After that I contacted Givelle with Lamano Law and had the completely opposite experience—she made me feel listened to, cared about, and in safe, competent hands.I can’t recommend Givelle and Lamano Law enough—professional attorneys who also care deeply about making you feel hopeful and empowered about your case and future. 👍

I found attorney Givelle Lamano on yelp and all the reviews were five stars. When I met Givelle, she really took her time to explain me how the court system works step by step. She is very intelligent and she knows how to deal with legal problems. The most valuable part of Givelle is that she genuinely cares about her clients and cases. Shes really passionate with her work and she works really hard. She is very responsive through emails. If I need any legal help in the future, shes going to be the only attorney I would ask for.

Givelle possesses the hard-to-find qualities you want in an attorney. She knows the law inside and out, she’s tenacious, AND she has a big heart for her clients. I have never met anyone like her and cannot recommend her enough!

It would be a mistake not to consider Ms. Lamano and her law office for their services if you should ever be in need of a lawyer. I had been referred to Lamano Law Office after an unfortunate encounter with the police, and immediately we got to work to clear my name. From our first interaction, I was heard, I was understood, and I was believed in my innocence. Ms. Lamano and her team were very professional and prompt in answering my questions, and through the whole process of dealing with the legal system, I could rely on them to guide me through the process and to educate me on the specifics of the American legal system. I am very fortunate and thankful to have had Ms. Lamano and her team behind me during the last few months.

Givelle has been a godsend. From my first interaction with her, she was straightforward, caring, and knowledgeable. She and her team kept me informed and made sure that I adhered to all my deadlines. Furthermore, as my matter may need further lawyer guidance, Givelle has helped me in researching other law firms. I only wish that I could hire her and her team for any matter involving the law that may come up in the future. She is truly an amazing professional to work with.

Givelle Lamano and her team could not be more helpful in such a stressful part of my life. With knowledge, honesty and attentiveness to my case, she gave me all the news with ease, both good and the bad which allowed me to feel safe. She gave clear advice along with constant updates and made the process much less intimidating and could not be more thankful. Seriously, a BIG thank you! It was the best call I could have made.I would highly recommend her professional assistance to anyone who is in need of help.

I can’t begin to say how amazed I am at how helpful Lamano Law office was in helping settle my DUI case. I had been so embarrassed and called the office with little to no hope. I spoke with Givelle and was saved the long winded explanation I was going to give her, my nerves were calmed immediately. Givelle had the information on my case immediately and discussed clearly some options that I had, best case and worst case scenario. The price was a bit high, but well worth it!! There was also an option for a payment plan which I thought was really awesome! My case was settled quickly, I was amazed by how everything turned out! Manjula and I spoke during the process and I felt informed about everything that was taking place. I felt taken care of, like this firm was going to do everything in their power to help me. I really can’t say thank you enough to this firm, I’m so happy that I chose to have Lamano Law office represent me. I give them 10/10, would hire again, recommend to a friend, they were so amazing. If it means anything I’m a gay man, 26 years old, case was serious, and I felt welcome and understood, I didn’t feel judged and that really meant a lot. Give them a call if you don’t know what to do and you are serious about not making this mistake again, they really are the best!

I loved the services my mother and I received right when we walked through the door of Lamano Law at her San Fancisco location. This included a professional staff who interacted in a warm, welcoming, and friendly manner as they offerd us coffee and/or water (Smart Water! My favorite!). When Givelle Lamano introduced herself immediately I was comforted by her positive energy and positive attitude. She went well over the half hour that seems too be then norm for free consultations and she went to work right away. I never once felt rushed and most importantly I knew she, Givelle, was listening to me and her feedback brought my stress level down a few nothes!!. She went out of her way to contact another attoeney of mine before I even retained her, and was able to provide valuable insight. Lamano Law uses a holistic approach stated Givelle which I appreciate, and right then I knew she would get the job done. Thanks again For you hospitlity and everything else. Angela

Atty. Lamano was very responsive. I called the office in the morning and she was in court at the time. She gave me a call that same morning (I suppose she had a break during court) to talk to me about my case. She took down all the details of the case and explained all my options in detail. The call took about 20min total. We scheduled a time to check back in one week and she was very punctual. From there she gave me options regarding next steps and what I can do myself to save money before retaining her. The fact that she was more concerned with my case instead of getting hired is a testament to her unselfish character. I felt I could trust her because of this, and I didnt felt pressure to hire her right away because she gave me other options I could do myself. I would definitely recommend her.

So life happens and the Lamano Law office received a call. From the get go, Givelle took control of the situation. There was no beating around the bush, it was solid go time. She took the situation and relayed her knowledgeable and experienced professionalism. She even went the whole 9 yards and said that even if you don’t go with us, this is your first few steps in the process. As a man of business, we stopped researching and hired the firm. Throughout the process myself and my loved ones had constant updates, prompt returned calls, and clear concise information. Her firm will support you tooth and nail in your situation. Do yourself favor and look no further. You owe it to yourself.-K

I was in a tough situation and the Lamano team was able to provide very informative information for me. They broke things down for me to better understand what was going on and view my potential outcomes. They are great at responding back via phone, text or email. They stay in touch with you and keep you posted of any changes. If in need of legal represantation dont look any further and contact the Lamano Law Office.

Very quickly but thoroughly, Givelle Lomano, was able to explain my charges and the process I was getting into.She was able to call the DA’s office directly and confirm I was clear of my charges! Givelle made me feel reassured while not incurring any unnecessary charges!! Thank you for the help!!!!!

The firm responded to my request the same day I posted it! We were given excellent advice for the issue at hand. We were very impressed with the firm & intend to hire them if need be. Although we are in another state we are confident the firm would handle our case with the utmost urgency & proficiency as if we were there in CA.

Working with Givelle Lamano of the Lamano Law Office was something to enjoy and endure. In the beginning she was on me about getting things straightened out so I would be the best representation of myself as I could be. She pushed for things others would not have getting me into programs that were not court ordered in order for me to be better and do better. My case was long and took a lot out of me and my family for almost 3 years, yet she was always there to take questions and Anwser through text, email, phone and in personal meetings. Shes not some public defender that will forget your name. Givelle cares for all that are impacted. If you chose to say no on somethings she can see where you are coming from and understand and respect your choice. Maybe a little nudging but if you say no then its no. I truly thank her for everything she has done for me and I respect wholeheartedly who she and her company is.

Attention to detail and optimistic conversation. She offered me a job opportunity which was her going out of her way, thank you. It couldve been easier for the lawyers if I had stayed in CA but I had to return to India and let them represent me remotely.

Givelle at Lamano Law is the best criminal defense attorney you will ever find in the Bay Area. The only difference between Givelle and a pitbull is lipstick. I was in an unfortunate situation and needed someone who wouldn’t sugar coat my options and keep it straight with me. Givelle is the type who is honest and will tell you first hand whether your situation is the type where you need an attorney or if you could handle it on your own. She is understanding of everyone’s situation and the best part about her is that she truly doesn’t make you feel beneath her. Thank you Givelle and Lamano for everything you have done!

Givelle is both down-to-earth and whip-smart. Ive known Givelle professionally for years and recently went to her about a personal legal issue. She was able to quickly direct me to a solution that I hadnt considered and in turn, saved me a lot of time and money.

We found Lamano Law on the internet and after our first meeting with Givelle, we knew it was the right place to be. You get what you pay for. They were thorough, courteous, responsive, empathetic, and professional. My son never had to appear in court but was thoroughly briefed on all proceedings and made well aware of the potential consequences of his actions. Lamano Law handled everything and got him the best deal possible. I would highly recommend this small firm of tenacious women for all your DUI needs!!

After researching lawyers in the area, we luckily found Givelle. She has been a blessing to us. She educated us in all aspects of the area that pertained to our concerns and gave us peace of mind. The fact that her practice continues to grow and expand is a testament to her dedication to her profession and the clients that put their trust in her. We dont wish anyone any legal woes but should you need a lawyer, shes the one to call.

Givelle and her team are amazing! From the time I picked up the phone for assistance in my son’s case, they were with us every step of the way. All calls, texts, emails were answered and unlike our other Attys who charged us every time they picked up the phone, Givelle was not about the $ at all. We never felt rushed and she was very patient in answering all of our questions. My son’s case took over a year and during that time, we felt very emotionally supported. We received favorable results and now can breathe easier. If you or one of your family members need an amazing defense attorney, hiring Givelle and her team will be the best decision you’ve ever made. Highly recommend them!

I would highly recommend Lamano Law Office if you have received a DUI. All these ladies were very pleasant, compassionate, and very informative during my 1+ year long process. I never felt uncomfortable speaking with them like I have other attorneys! Thank you for assisting me in my matter!

Givelle is great! Aside from doing her part to push forward social justice within Americas broken criminal justice system, she is a willing and genuine mentor to those around her. Keep living and doing you, Givelle!

I came in asking for a friend. Ms. Lamano was friendly and truthful. She was easy to communicate and really listened to what I had to say about my friend. Helping out my friend I tried calling other lawyers for advice in Oakland, and they were all trying to scare me, didnt want to listen to the details and simply gave their retainer fee. Lamano Law was different. Thank you for the honest help. My friend and I really appreciate it.

My cousin got into a fight with her husband and the neighbors called the police on them and said they had to arrest somebody so they arrested her. She ended up going to jail for the night and had to spend money to bail out. They gave her a restraining order / protective order and she had to go to court to face charges of assault and battery, abuse, and domestic violence. This was really rough on our family because she is a good person and was actually the victim and not the one at fault. We never went through this kind of thing before so we called this law firm to get advice. After 30 minutes on the phone with them we felt so much better. They knew exactly what to do and set us up on a payment plan that we could afford. This law firm is really the best when it comes to domestic violence issues. They got the job done and really helped our family out.

Givelle is a childhood friend whom I have not spoken to in nearly 30 years. I found out she became a criminal lawyer and could not have been more proud of her. However, I never thought in my wildest dreams that it would take a serious matter to finally reunite. All I can say was she never made me feel like time had passed. Right away, she put me at ease, explained what could potentially happen (good and bad), educated me on the process and even followed up a few days later. I live in San Diego and Givelle could have easily swayed me to use her, which I would have due to her raving reviews. Instead, because of her integrity and compassion for others, she recommended that it would be in our best interest to find someone in San Diego in order to save on legal costs. She even provided me with questions I should be asking the lawyer so I wouldnt be blindsided with unforeseen costs. Any other attorney would care less. Thanks Givelle for all your support and genuine spirit!!

Excellent representation. VERY knowledgeable. Family oriented. The staff is EXTREMELY pleasant and helpful. The expertise, knowledge and application of the law makes Lamano Law the best in the field. This law firm takes the fear out of the process. Expectations were above and beyond anything I could have imagined. If you need legal representation and you dont use Lamano Law you may be underrepresented!The entire team is 10 star worthy

Very rarely do you come across professionals who combine intelligence, integrity and fierceness. These are the qualities I would look for and found in criminal defense attorney Givelle Lamano. Ms. Lamano is highly smart and ethical. She fights for her clients. In addition to possessing great legal skills, she is committed to working out the best possible resolutions for her clients all in the while handholding them and making them know they can rely on her all the way. I highly recommend Ms. Lamano as an attorney.

Givelle is a super hero/lawyer! She explaines everything with depth and being upfront about all the scenarios that can happen with your case. She is honest, clear and willing to work with you. This firm is for the people and will do their best to get you through the scary legal system. Very thankful that we found Givelle Lamano.

I learned about this lawyer from a trusted friend. They say when you want to get a job done, have a woman do it. Thats exactly what this firm did. They got the job done and I love that they are all women. They are no nonsense, the best, and you can tell how organized they are throughout their work. They are friendly and make you feel cared for from beginning to end. I highly recommend them!

If you are looking for legal help or even legal advice, look no further than Lamano Law Offices. Givelle and her team are courteous, professional, knowledgeable and pay great attention to detail. If I was ever in need of a legal team, she would be my first choice hands down.

The best decision that I ever made was choosing Givelle. After too much frustration from another lawyer, I found Givelle on Avvo and chose her based on her good reviews. This was the best choice I ever made, from the day she took my case. she explained every detail showed confidence on how to get the best results. I was charged with four counts, and after nine months, the case went to trial. Givelle and her team represented me in the court, they really put a fantastic fight in that court room She was so helpful during all the process. The best results finally came when the juror came with a not guilty verdict on all four counts, it was the best day ever for me. Givelle will put all the energy and effort to get the best results. I will highly recommend her to anyone looking for a criminal defense lawyer.

I met Givelle in October 2017 and since my first meeting with her she has consistently been approachable, available, honest, curious, and prepared every time I have contacted her via email, text, on the phone, and in person. This means that I have gotten more out of each interaction with Givelle than I was expecting because we were able to continue off our last conversation and move closer to my ultimate goal. Ultimately, Givelle is goal-oriented and able to take the time needed to get to the root of the matter. So, if you need something done, do it right and get it done with Givelle.

My husband and I just got off the phone with this attorney. For zero dollars she spent a good amount of time with us asking questions and making sure we understood the best and worst case scenarios for our legal situation. She explained how getting an attorney would benefit us but also let us know what a public defender could do as well. She also gave us referrals to other attorneys who might cost a bit less, but whom she trusted. Yesterday we spoke with another guy on here with the best reviews. He mostly talked about himself and had no details. I would trust her referrals over these Google reviews which can be manipulated. This lady is the real deal. Thanks!

Recently I had the pleasure of benefiting from the law firm LAMANO, specifically Givelle Lamano.What impressed me the most with Givelle, was her passion for listening, to provide the support I needed, to hear “my side” of the story, to be an active participant in my fears, she was supportive first and foremost.Make no mistake, she was honest and sincere with me. She spoke the truth and spelled out the pros and cons of my scenario, the good, the bad, and the ugly. She took the time to explain the lowest concern and the highest concern, for my peace of mind. She allowed me to feel like I had a champion on my side, during a period when I have felt alone and isolated. She was always thorough and professional in her disclosures.I truly felt at peace for the first time in 2 and half weeks. Her knowledge and experience were more than reassuring for me, it was exactly what I needed at that time and moment. The journey is not over, the risk is still present, I cannot predict the future except for the most important fact which is that I now feel like I have someone on my side for the first time in over a year.I even feared for how I would find someone to take care of my pets, should I be arrested, and she responded once again in a positive and supportive manner by assuring me that I would receive all the help I needed.The compassion and empathy she shared with me, for my life, my fears, respect for my pets, who are my family, well brought tears to my eyes frankly.The fee was well worth her time and I never felt like I would be asked to pay for something which was unnecessary, in fact the opposite occurred. I would have gladly paid more money to achieve more peace of mind, yet Givelle spoke honestly and from the heart, as she suggested that there was no need to spend additional money now. How often do you hear that in today’s world? Not very often.Thank you so much Givelle.

Without a doubt, Givelle Lamano knows her ins and outs of the criminal legal system and how to maneuver every aspect of it. Her diligence and work ethic is like no other! Some individuals are lawyers for the status quo or rather the pedigree that comes with it whereas, Lamano, is a lawyer because of her passion to defend and question the status quo.

Givelle is amazing. She has always been super responsive and a wealth of information. When I had a question, she not only responded on her off time, but quickly got me not only an answer, but a direct link to another professional in her arsenal that had even more in depth knowledge. I would highly recommend Givelle.

The absolute best!! This was the best decision I made after getting charged with a DUI. My charges was brought down to a wet wreckless and only 4 sessions (4 days) of DUI school. My license was never suspended. If I never got this firm to represent me, I would have had my license suspended for a full year and I would have had to attend DUI school for 6 months. Givelle is honest, straight forward and a clear communicator. She will do everything in to getting you the best possible outcome.
