THE BRAVO LAW FIRM, APC is the brand new full service boutique law firm of Nicholas Bravo. Prior to founding The Bravo Law Firm, APC, Nicholas spent almost a decade under the tutelage of Los Angeles power lawyer Ronald Richards, learning all the tricks of trade.
The Bravo Law Firm, APC offers of the most technologically advanced and time efficient legal service available in the Los Angeles area. The firm is not afraid to take your matter all the way to trial and beyond when necessary.
While at his prior firm, Mr. Bravo handled an extensive array of cases, likely thousands, in numerous fields of legal practice including but not limited to real estate related litigation, business litigation, personal injury, criminal defense and asset forfeiture, as well as civil appeals. Nicholas has contributed to at least four (4) published opinions in the California Court of Appeal, and at least two (2) published opinions in the United StatesCourt of Appeals for the 9th Circuit . Nicholas has also been accepted by the California Supreme Court as Amici Curiae, a "friend of the court".
Of his criminal defense cases, Mr. Bravo has handled both State and Federal criminal charges, from domestic violence, violent crimes, sex crimes, and DUI, to massive narcotic defense defending individuals caught with dozens and dozens of kilos of cocaine and millions of dollars in currency.
In addition to criminal law, at his prior firm, Mr. Bravo was the senior associate of the litigation sector handling all aspects of real estate, business, and personal injury matters from case inception through trial. Mr. Bravo has participated on cases and handled matters easily exceeding a combined $100,000,000.00 in controversy and obtaining judgments, and successfully collecting on those matters in the tens of millions.
With the opening of THE BRAVO LAW FIRM, APC, Mr. Bravo now has a dramatically smaller caseload and less fixed overhead. He now has more time to spend on the individual clients themselves, and can now provide his services at a much lower rate/lower minimum retainer from that which his prior firm may have offered his services. This is the best thing that could have happened for clients of Mr. Bravo. In 2017 and beyond, there is no need to pay the inflated costs of brick and mortar business...or law firms. Virtual business practice allows for far more flexibility that the client directly benefits from.
Mr. Bravo is really an attorney's attorney. He is an academic, no non-sense litigator, and trial attorney who has the ability, and most importantly the work ethic, to achieve the best results possible.
In fact, Mr. Bravo's most recent jury trial victory came in March 2017 representing a client in a consumer rights/ breach of warranty case in the downtown L.A. Stanley Mosk Courthouse. After 6 days of trial, the jury returned a verdict for Mr. Bravo's client.
As recently as September 2016, while at his prior firm, Mr. Bravo and his colleague successfully defended a court trial in the Santa Monica Courthouse on a real estate law matter. The Judge ruled in favor of Mr. Bravo's client 100%. It was a complete defense.
In November 2015, Mr. Bravo and his colleague successfully defended another court trial, in the Stanley Mosk Courthouse, on a real estate partnership dispute over millions of dollars. The Judge ruled in favor of Mr. Bravo's client 100%. It was another complete defense.
The list goes on and on.
