All this is public record. This persons boyfriend was at liberty with a serious federal drug case when I was hired. He remained at liberty with no indictment ever filed until he violated the terms of his release by leaving the country. Upon his return he violated his terms altogether and fled completely. Two years later he returned involuntarily. His girlfriend and I submitted many people for bail packages all of whom Probation refused or the individuals refused. Her own dad refused to sign a bond in the amount needed for this type of case. I fought with three separate prosecutors for his release. I filed a pre pleading memorandum, I filed advisory Guideline letters, I secured a plea that was essentially TIME SERVED Sentencing Guideline and go home. I filed a Speedy Trial motion and he was indicted. I made a bail application and the Magistrate refused stating he had "no problem" denying bond to someone who violated release terms twice. The client asked for his discovery which is his right and for me to file anew my Speedy Trial motion which I agreed. Together in Court we set the schedule to do those things. RIGHT BEFORE I was sent discovery to do the motions needed he asked for a new lawyer saying I didn't "have his best interests at heart." Of course with no lawyer everything stops. No other lawyer could do more. I secured a time served plea to cover the drug and potential failure to appear charge. The client has a right to a trial but he will have to wait in custody as the Magistrate said they don't ROR people in federal court who fled twice. I wish the gentleman all the best. I communicated always with this young lady until her dad told me to speak to him alone (he is an engineer) which I did whenever he had any questions. Later he said he was out of the picture to go back to speaking to his daughter which I did. The client and I spoke by phone dozens of times and I always answered his calls except when he called early and I was in Court. If anyone filed a complaint all of this is public record and a part of the docket. I have acted aggressively and ethically at all times. Had the gentleman not asked for a new lawyer I would have had his discovery and filed motions weeks ago. Moreover had he taken the plea I secured for him months ago, he could be getting sentenced to time served within the next few weeks and be home. No one HAS to take a plea, everyone is presumed innocent and everyone has a right to a trial. When you leave the country then leave the jurisdiction altogether for two years, and have no family or friends willing to sign a sufficient bond, one will have to wait in detention for their trial date. No lawyer can change that.

False promises
I had a phone interview with Mr. Osuna. He was very promising, however, at the end of every sentence he asked for his money "as soon as I received your first payment, I will start your case. Your case is very simple and if shouldn't take long". I sent him the payment and that was the end of it. Every...
This review is false. The review states I had to "call a DA" thus implying their matter was a criminal case. The review complains that after a year the case was "too old" to be helped. That cannot be true. Every criminal case requires regular monthly court appearances. The client must be present or have a warrant issued for their arrest. ANY CRIMINAL DEFENSE CLIENT KNOWS IN ONE YEAR THEY WOULD HAVE MADE AT LEAST EIGHT TO TEN COURT APPEARANCES WITH THEIR ATTORNEY PRESENT. Its impossible a criminal case would have lasted a year and the client never see or speak to their lawyer, not even in Court? Further when criminal cases get "too old" the case case gets dismissed and the client is present for this or any result. Thus I urge this writer to contact me directly to discuss what compels them to write things that cannot be true. Its unfortunate that AVVO allows individuals to make anonymous complaints of this nature.

Divorce Case
I hired Mr. Osuna 12/2012 because I needed a lawyer to review my stipulation which was already drafted up by my ex- attorney. I paid him $5000 for the retainer's fee. I saw Mr Osuna once in his office - first visit, then twice in court. After I signed the divorce paper in 4/2013, I didn't hear fro...
This client and I had a fee dispute hearing. The arbitrator ruled I earned by entire fee completely. In reviewing her settlement document I did ALL the due diligence needed including getting valuations on the coop, the retirement packages and the tax implications. In recognition of all the work I performed, the clients husband paid me an additional $2000.00 of which I was awarded $1400.00 and the client was given $600.00. The QDROs or Qualified Domestic Relations Orders were not done by me as those are done by private companies such as Lexington Pension and the client refused to pay them. But after a hearing it was decided I earned my entire fee and then some.
"Mr. Osuna is a gentleman and a scholar. He is also a very nice guy, who is approachable, does not talk over anyone's head although he is extremely knowledgeable and intelligent, and an accomplished attorney. I not only happily endorse him, but I would refer those seeking the legal services he provides and practices in that I do not to him."
