OAKLAND, Calif. - August 11, 2026 - The Nieves Law Firm, APC, a criminal defense and post-conviction relief firm serving the Bay Area and Northern California, today announced it has been named to the 2026 Inc. 5000, the most prestigious ranking of the fastest-growing private companies in America. The firm ranked No. 3135 on the list.

The Inc. 5000 recognizes independent, privately held businesses that have achieved exceptional growth, placing The Nieves Law Firm among a select group of companies driving innovation across the U.S. economy.

Founded in 2012 by Jo-Anna Nieves, the firm has grown from a solo practice into a team of 45 attorneys and staff across 6 offices in Northern California, representing clients in serious felony crimes, domestic violence, restraining orders, and Title IX cases.

"This recognition belongs to our entire team and to every client who trusted us during one of the hardest moments of their lives," said Jo-Anna Nieves, Founder and CEO of The Nieves Law Firm. "We built this firm on the belief that people facing criminal charges deserve a defense that is aggressive, compassionate, and accessible. Growing fast was never the goal but it was the natural byproduct of helping people, and doing it well. We know that the more we grow the more impact we have in our communities."

"What sets us apart isn't just the outcomes we fight for in court, it's how we treat people along the way," Nieves added. "This milestone is proof that you can build a thriving business by putting clients and standards first."

The Nieves Law Firm's growth reflects rising demand for client-centered criminal defense across the region, as well as the firm's investment in its team, technology, and community. As part of that growth, the firm has expanded its multilingual services, providing counsel in Spanish and other languages like Arabic and Hindi to ensure that language is never a barrier for someone facing criminal charges.
