About Vincent S. Hughes

I'm a Southern California lawyer ☀️ who started from the bottom of the legal field as a legal assistant and has risen to own and operate my own law firm. I have extensive experience in legal research, legal writing, and implementing efficient procedures to minimize cost to my clients and ensure that my clients get the best possible results.🏆 In law school, I received an American Jurisprudence award in nearly all of my courses. This is a big deal, as the American Jurisprudence award is awarded to the student achieving the highest grade and rank in the class for a particular subject (e.g., Torts, Criminal Law, Criminal Procedure, Evidence, Family Law, Civil Procedure, etc.). Among the classes I received an American Jurisprudence Award were Criminal Law, Contracts, Legal Research and Writing, Civil Procedure, and Business Associations.🎯 In practice, I fight zealously for my clients to achieve the best possible results. I don't back down from a fight, and I explore all possibilities to get my clients positive results. From the legal technology I employ to reduce representation costs to the wide array of referrals I utilize to evaluate and prepare my clients' cases (e.g., investigators, medical experts, mental health experts, etc.), I ensure that my clients all receive the personal attention that they deserve!

From the moment I contacted Mr. Hughes’ office, I knew I was working with a team that operates at a high professional standard. Mr. Hughes was not only knowledgeable, but also incredibly attentive and thorough throughout the entire process. He walked me through every single step of my case, making sure I understood exactly what was happening and what to expect next. That level of communication gave me confidence and peace of mind during a stressful time. What really stood out was how efficient and on-point he was when handling the legal aspects of my situation. His experience clearly showed in the way he was able to navigate the process quickly and strategically. He didn’t waste any time and took immediate action to protect my interests. Because of his skill and dedication, he was able to successfully win my case.

I highly recommend Mr. Hughes and his office to handle your legal needs. As an out-of-state (NON-CA) NY-CDL truck driver, I received a hands-free cell phone moving violation citation from CHP (CA Hwy Patrol) in southern Cali-Riverside County 11-30-23.Fast forward to last month JAN 2025-nearly 14Mos from citation date and the case and charges were dismissed with NO fine or more importantly points on my NY-CDL driver record. As a commercial driver, everyone knows this is your occupation; and, you need to protect your license. I confidently state Mr. Hughes and his team diligently worked to win my case in court and protect my driving record. For that action, I cannot say Thank You enough for his efforts. Lastly, Mr. Hughes makes use of technology to keep touch with his clients. Clients can communicate with him at any time thru the Clio software online secure E-Mail msg portal. Mr. Hughes always returned online messages or phone calls. I strongly recommend Mr. Vincent Hughes-ESQ

It was the best decision I made having Mr. Hughes represent me. I had a moving out of state case. The father of my child has been very inconsistent throughout our child’s life and I have always battled the courts on my own. The moment we discussed my case during my consultation I knew he was the right choice. He was very thorough and assured me he will be there to answer any questions I have throughout my case. He is a very busy man, but he is a man of his word! He will always get back to you. The judge granted my move away. Thank you Mr. Hughes for your help in my case. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for an honest, hard working, and reliable attorney.

I had the privilege of being represented by the Law Office of Vincent Hughes for an injust traffic ticket i recieved. Attorney Hughes went above and beyond to fight for me in court, ultimately proving that the traffic ticket was unjust. Thanks to his exceptional skills and dedication, my case was dismissed. I cannot express enough how highly I recommend Atty. Hughes to everyone in need of legal representation. His fantastic job and unwavering commitment to his clients make him the go-to attorney for any legal matter.

It is solely the responsibility of lawyers and law firms to ensure that any information they provide complies with all applicable laws and rules of professional conduct.

Lawyers.com Client Reviews

Martindale-Hubbell® Client Review Ratings™ display reviews submitted by individuals who have either hired or consulted the lawyers or law firms.

The Client Review Rating score is determined through the aggregation of validated responses. People who submit reviews are either individuals who consulted with the lawyer/law firm or who hired the lawyer/law firm and want to share their experience of that lawyer or law firm with other potential clients. Reviewers can be anyone who consults or hires a lawyer including in-house counsel, corporate executives, small business owners, and private individuals.

Martindale-Hubbell validates that a reviewer is a person with a valid email address. As part of the review process, respondents must affirm that they have had an initial consultation, are currently a client or have been a client of the lawyer or law firm identified, although Martindale-Hubbell cannot confirm the lawyer/client relationship as it is often confidential. The content of the responses is entirely from reviewers.

Prior results do not guarantee a similar outcome and Martindale-Hubbell accepts no responsibility for the content or accuracy of any review. For more information on Martindale-Hubbell Client Review Ratings, please visit our Client Review Page

Martindale Peer Reviews

Martindale-Hubbell® Peer Review Ratings™ are the gold standard in attorney ratings, and have been for more than a century. These ratings indicate attorneys who are widely respected by their peers for their ethical standards and legal expertise in a specific area of practice.

The Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings process is the gold standard due to its objectivity and comprehensiveness. Lawyers solicited for peer reviews include both those selected by the attorney being reviewed and lawyers independently selected by Martindale-Hubbell. All reviewers are verified as attorneys through Martindale-Hubbell’s extensive attorney database. Only attorneys practicing at least three years and receiving a sufficient number of reviews from non-affiliated attorneys are eligible to receive a Rating.

What are the different Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings?*

• AV Preeminent®: The highest peer rating standard. This rating signifies that a large number of the lawyer’s peers rank him or her at the highest level of professional excellence for their legal knowledge, communication skills and ethical standards.

• Distinguished: An excellent rating for a lawyer with some experience. This rating indicates the attorney is widely respected by their peers for high professional achievement and ethical standards.

• Notable: This rating indicates that the lawyer has been recognized by a large number of their peers for strong ethical standards.

Lawyers who have received peer reviews after 2009 will display more detailed information, including practice areas, summary ratings, detailed numeric ratings and written feedback (if available). Details for individual reviews received before 2009 are not displayed.

Attorneys that receive reviews from their peers, but not a sufficient number to establish a Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Rating, will have those reviews display on our websites.

For more information on Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings™, please visit our Ratings Page on Martindale.com and our Frequently Asked Questions

Avvo Client Reviews
