About Us

About Padilla Law

José M. Padilla worked at top law firms out of Silicon Valley and New York City, and then worked at companies hiring top law firms. 

While at law firms, he was frustrated that his speed and efficiency meant a lower chance to get a bonus based on billing more hours.

While in-house, he became frustrated at the lack of responsiveness and high rates of outside law firms. 

Thus, he founded Padilla Law PLLC to provide top quality legal services efficiently and responsively. 

He has a background and has recruited team members with unique sets of skills that make Padilla Law PLLC a one-of-a-kind law firm with the capabilities to help clients succeed, including expertise in mergers & acquisitions, venture capital investments, healthcare, gaming and cryptocurrency.

Mission

Padilla Law PLLC was founded to provide the highest quality of corporate law services with reasonable fees and in an efficient, effective and responsive manner that delivers value to the client.

Core Principles

Our firm’s success is rooted in our core principles. 

Integrity

Many can say they are honest, trustworthy and ethical, but José M. Padilla has lived a life with the personal policy to never cheat or exploit anyone. The firm is run on the Kantian principle to “always treat people as ends in themselves, never merely as a means to one’s own ends.”

Excellence

We commit to the highest standards of performance on behalf of our clients. We are not perfect but we strive to deliver outstanding results in everything we do and to improve when we do not. With national experience, we hold ourselves to national standards.

Value

As a business law firm, we help our clients to balance legal risk and value in a rational manner to drive business goals. In short, we use reason to understand facts and arrive at logical conclusions to legal issues. Sometimes, instead of spending thousands in legal fees, a problem can be solved with a $6 check.

Don’t take our words only. Hear others too.
