Best Possible Resolution to Out of State DUI - Highest Recommendation

I was very worried about my case when I contacted Mr. Modica. I felt reassured after speaking with him because he took the time to explain all possible outcomes, demonstrated his expertise in Delaware law by detailing various opportunities we would have, and provided me with the confidence that he p...ersonally cared about the disposition of my case. He did not "sugar-coat" my circumstances, but with comfortable professionalism and without judgment, he questioned me about all the relevant facts and clearly explained how each factor would affect his ability to argue on my behalf. Since I am not a resident of Delaware, he also demonstrated his knowledge about what I can expect under various outcomes as an out-of-state resident. Throughout the process of my case, Mr. Modica was always responsive and incredibly helpful. I went into court with the confidence that regardless of the outcome, I had the best representation possible. As it turns out, Mr. Modica was able to achieve the best possible resolution to my case and I am forever grateful for his services, which I hope to never require again. I highly recommend that anyone searching for legal counsel in Delaware contact Mr. Modica immediately.

Knowledgeable, Determined and Respectful... Wilmington's finest defense attourney.

I was lucky enough to be blessed with Modica as my lawyer for two DUI cases, one lasting over 30 months, and can not even begin to explain how well he has handled my cases! His confidence, expertise, and professionalism reassured me that I had made the right choice in representation. Modica always ga...ve me the correct advice and never rushed through my case. He took his time and did his research, ensuring me of the best outcome. What seemed to be a nightmare with no end in sight became a fresh new beginning thanks to him.

never calls back

I have been attempting to hire Mr. Modica for almost a month now. Last time we spoke which was about a month ago he said he would email an invoice, well I'm still waiting a month later. I have called several times at his office and cellphone number and he has yet to call me back. Very unprofessional!... This is not the first incident where Mr. Modica took forever to call back. I was very eager to hire him for my husband however Mr. Modica won't call me back. If my husband's case is too difficult for him he could have had the decency to tell me over the phone so I wouldnt waste another day waiting for his response.

While I do not recognize who wrote this, I regret that they were disappointed by my apparent lack of a response. I can only state that December was extremely busy for me professionally. I make every effort to return all phone calls but it seems that this one fell through the cracks. I accept responsibility for disappointing this individual and I will commit to doing better in the future.
