Mr. De Armas helped me during a very difficult, sensitive case where I was a stalking victim in an injunction hearing. Mr. De Armas understood the complexities of the hearing where I was required to stand mere feet from my stalker and confront him, and made the process as easy as possible. Despite the respondent's best efforts to complicate and delay the case, Mr. De Armas helped keep the Court focused and quickly moved the case to a final hearing.

I came to the Plata, Schott law firm scared, frustrated with no direction to go, Attorney De Armas met with me, calmed me down, gave me direction on how things would go, told me what to do and how to do it. I emailed Marvin when I was frustrated, had anxiety, scared, and he responded immediately with an answer and his phone number to call and vent my concerns with him. Attorney De Armas was very professional in and out of the court room. He has continued to keep me informed on every Notice as well as checking on my progress, I would recommend Attorney De Armas to take care of any situation someone may need an Attorney for.

We hired Marvin to assist us in getting a case expunged. Marvin was very clear and detailed in explaining the process. He called monthly to give me an update. Overall I would say the Marvin is a very professional lawyer. I am glad that we hired him to handle this for us!

Marvin De Armas is not trustworthy because he did not send my application into immigration after I gave him everything he needed. Marvin lied to me many times about sending it. I felt cheated by him because he lied to me more than once. He told me at least five times that he sent in my application to immigration. I called Marvin many times to ask for an update on my case and Marvin did not respond to my messages. I found out about Marvin's lies when the police stopped me for a traffic ticket. I am a single mother and I was terrified about being arrested and deported and being separated from my children. When the police stopped me, they asked me about my immigration status. I contacted Marvin and he replied in a text that he would call me to discuss. Marvin never called me back. As a result, I talked with Marvin's boss, who realized that Marvin never sent the package into immigration. The lies of Marvin really hurt me emotionally. I felt like Marvin was ignoring my case. It was Marvin's fault that he did not send the package into immigration. Marvin even admitted to this as evidenced by many emails that he wrote to lawyers who had contacted him about why my case had so much delay. Marvin admitted in these emails to other lawyers that he did not send the package into immigration because he forgot and that he did not make my case a priority. Now that Marvin has his own law office, he is trying to blame his former boss for these mistakes even after he admitted in multiple emails that it was his fault. The worst part is that Marvin still refuses to admit that he made mistakes to me even though he sent multiple emails to other lawyers admitting that it was his fault. Marvin just tries to blame other people for his own mistakes. Pathetic. Marvin De Armas no es de confiar porque no mando mi aplicación para inmigración. Me sentí engañada por él porque él me mintió muchas veces porque él nunca envió mi aplicación y me dijo al menos cinco veces que el envío la aplicación. Muchas veces, Marvin no respondía a mis mensajes. La policía me paró y tuve preocupación en deportación porque soy madre soltera. Se lo hizo saber a Marvin y sólo me respondió en un texto, te llamo más tarde y nunca me llamó. Platiqué con el jefe de Marvin y me dio cuenta que Marvin nunca mando el paquete para inmigración. Me dolía emocionalmente la mentiras de Marvin. Me sentía como Marvin ignoraba mi caso. Para mi, Marvin fue responsable de mi caso. Descubrí que Marvin no hizo su trabajo bien. Ahora él no quiere admitir responsable porque tiene su propio oficina aunque él ya acepto sus errores en correos electrónicos a otros abogados. Marvin ya dijo que fue culpa de él que no envió el paquete porque él olvido y no hizo mi caso de prioridad. No echar la culpa a otros, y acepta sus errores. Patético.
