Facing criminal charges can be scary and overwhelming. Our job is to make the process less intimidating by advising you of your rights, your options, and then planning a course of attack. We will guide you through the legal process - fighting zealously for you every step of the way. Minors, who have been accused of committing a crime, can either have the matter resolved informally at an intake hearing or through the courts.
Some charges, such as shoplifting or second-degree assault, can be resolved at an informal intake hearing with community service or perhaps no need to do anything further at all. Are you in good hands? You should be. Dealing with the difficulties that follow a life changing injury can be frustrating.

Windy was awesome. She worked with my son on very short notice but we were still very well prepared. She gave us every scenario and possible outcomes. She told us what "homework " we needed to do for her and she compiled it into a great defense. Many thanks to her and her law firm! Joshua Ortega provided me with timely and affordable legal counsel in my time of need.

There aren't enough words to express how wonderful and amazing it was to work with Ortega Law, specifically Josh (I didn't work with his wife, but I'm sure she's as impressive). He's responsive, beyond helpful, knowledgeable, and caring. He even went over and beyond to assist me and answer all of my questions about something unrelated. I trusted him from the first conversation and knew that my best interest was of importance to him. His pricing was very fair, and although my case was dismissed, he was worth every single penny spent, and I have not one regret! I will recommend Josh over and over

I have worked with many attorneys in my line of work, one of which is now a judge, but Josh is truly the best of the best. To find someone that can work a courtroom like he can AND genuinely care about his client is like finding a needle in a haystack.

First and foremost, 5 stars across the board for Josh, Windy, and their staff. They are very professional and extremely knowledgeable, and were extremely caring and supportive throughout the whole process. If you need an attorney that knows the AA County system, the “Fighting Ortega’s” will fight for you.

Mr. Ortega was a breath of fresh air from the moment I walked into his office. I only saw/talked to two lawyers regarding my case. I chose him because of his reassuring nature and confidence....and I'm happy I did. He's smart, savvy and diligent. Not long after reviewing my case, he had a plan. Though the pandemic significantly extended the timeline of the case, he personally kept in contact with me, informing of new developments along the way. I watched the reactions of several court house officials when he arrived. When they see him coming or hear his name, they know it's about to get REAL. Mr

My experience with Windy Ortega has been nothing less than absolute top quality. She made sure I was entirely informed about every decision I made every step of the way, while also lending me her expert opinion concerning the direction that I was interested or not interested in proceeding. Truly deserving of the “Super” a lawyer title.

Josh Ortege is a great lawyer, honest, hard working and truly keeps the interest of his clients to heart. He is responsive to his clients both over email and call and made the process as simple and straightforward as process for me. He charges a very fair rate for his services and let me know the total cost up front with no hidden fees. He is also very knowledgeable of the law and will keep you informed of what to expect at each stage of the legal process you find yourself in. Great guy, great lawyer, a rare breed.
