Marisela Bonilla
Pre-Litigation Case Manager
In 2009, Marisela joined Octavio to help him build the Lopez Law Group from the ground up, bringing high-level legal management skills, vast knowledge, and a strong work ethic from her experience at one the of the oldest and most prestigious, global law firms in the world.
Working in a global corporate law firm gave Marisela a solid foundation from working with prominent and esteemed attorneys who practiced what they preached, held themselves to higher standards and never cut corners. She was lucky to have this work ethic ingrained in her at the beginning of her legal career, and, today, she has established these same high-quality principles to be the guiding credo at the Lopez Law Firm.
Working in corporate law had its prestige and victories, and Marisela was thriving and successful, but something was amiss. Helping multi-million-dollar corporations or wealthy insurance companies win high-profile cases wasn’t fulfilling Marisela, and she never went to sleep at night with a good feeling. It was her father who encouraged her to soul search and find a firm that better fit her humanistic worldview.
Today, at Lopez Law Group, Marisela has found her calling making a difference by changing family’s lives every day with her legal experience, passion and dedication. She says, “Now, when I go to sleep at night, I’m comfortable knowing that I helped to change a family’s future.”
In addition to her compassionate outlook, spirited work ethic and strong leadership skills, Marisela created a meticulous system for handling a client’s file. “We’re very strict about consistency and sticking to the system that’s been developed, so that every aspect of a file is handled inside out, from A to Z. Sticking to the firm’s system ensures every client’s case is handled thoroughly and efficiently, resulting in maximum recovery for the client.”
