Cedric S.

Most Experienced and Highest Top Rated Plus Attorney on Upwork

Hello, I'm Cedric Severino and I am Upwork’s top go-to attorney for nearly all your legal needs. California licensed since 2006. Over 1,100 Upwork jobs and counting! I am grateful for the appreciation for my dedicated, trustworthy, and, if necessary, tenacious representation of, and zealous advocacy for my clients. I've been extremely fortunate to represent my clients through Upwork's wonderful platform, and would love to add you to my list of more-than-satisfied clients. I am the most experienced, hardest working, most client focused (and dedicated) and consistently 5 Star Rated Attorney on Upwork, having worked on the platform and its predecessors for over a decade. Most importantly, I've had the invaluable opportunities to consult, advise, guide, and advocate on behalf of hundreds of small businesses and individuals throughout that time. Should you choose to spend your time and money in hiring me as your attorney, I will be your dedicated advocate, trusted confidant, and dependable resource to help you through whatever legal situation you’re in with honesty and sincerity. I’ll utilize all my legal knowledge and experience, and my zealous advocacy, on your and/or your business’ behalf to work with you to achieve the best possible outcome to your legal issue. I exercise the same dedication whether in the adversarial process (in litigation), if you've been sued or are contemplating redressing injuries you've suffered through mediation, arbitration or litigation; if you need legal and regulatory compliance; with safeguarding your interests to the degree they can contractually; or whatever other legal needs you may have. I am a graduate of USC Law School ("fight on!") where I was on Law Review and in the top of my class. I have been licensed in California since 2006. After working at the prestigious Los Angeles Based international law firm, O'Melveny & Myers (one of the top 20 firms in the country), and obtaining valuable trial experience as a public defender in Orange County, I established my own practice in 2008. I now offer my services to Upwork customers and clients at a fraction of big law prices while providing a superior level of commitment and quality, stemming from my integrity and reverence for the practice of law. I primarily practice in the fields of employment law, contract law, civil litigation, business law, internet law, intellectual property law, personal injury law, corporate law, family law, and criminal law. Please do not hesitate to contact me to work with you for any of your legal needs, and join my over 1,100 extremely well satisfied Upwork clients (and counting)! I look forward to working with you. Best, Ced
