About
I graduated from Dartmouth College with a dual degree in History and Film Studies, and I earned my J.D. from Tulane Law School, where I also received my European Legal Certificate. After graduating, I moved to San Francisco to work in talent management. I began my legal career in Family Law but have since expanded my practice, and I have made numerous appearances in both the Civil and Criminal courts, including a five-year stint as the Supervising Attorney for the Shriver Pilot Project of San Francisco County. In addition, for two years I served as the Corporate Affairs Manager for a start-up company in Silicon Valley. I have also volunteered for the Justice & Diversity Center’s Legal Advice and Referral Clinic, Project Homeless Connect, and the Coalition of Concerned Legal Professional's "Know Your Law" Workshop Series.

This is my lawyer. He has worked for me for the past two years, free of charge, as part of the Sgt. Shriver Custody Project at the Justice and Diversity Center. My ex had a team of lawyers, advocates, and a support system that caused me to nearly give up on ever having a relationship with my young children. His wise counsel made sure we didn't get nasty over trivial pleadings from the other side, we avoided name calling, and handle the situation with dignity and respect. So often things can't be taken back in the egregiously adversarial process, where winning at any price is often the goal of attorneys, but not Javier. Whose broad shoulders bear the brunt of numerous insidious attacks. His patience never wore thin, and ultimately we are winning. I get to spend precious time with my kids and the hurt feelings of my ex have subsided. Javier Bastidas is a long game player who never loses focus on the end zone, no matter how far away it seems.
