Felony abduction

I hired Mr. DelRio to defend my son against a felony abduction charge. The first thing I would like to note is his availability. He answered our call on a weekend when all of the others we contacted waited until Monday to return our calls. My wife and I met him in his office in a Sunday afternoon and... explained the situation. He listened intently and after hearing the facts of the case, he assured us that this case was winnable. He was very diligent about getting all of the discovery from the prosecutor. Two days before the trial, he called to let us know that the State was going to recommend dismissal of the charges!! Needless to say, I would highly recommend Mr DelRio. He will work hard in your defense and having experience as a magistrate, he is very well connected and knows both sides of the justice system.

Outstanding Service with Excellent Results.

I had been falsely accused of shoplifting at a major grocery store. I contacted a couple of law firms before contacting Mr. Abraham Del Rio, and found them arrogant and very expensive. I contacted Mr. Abraham Del Rio III after researching his profile and being impressed by his resume. I explained my... situation and he listened with empathy. He was very professional and made me feel very comfortable right away. He was very understanding of the situation, and never once made me feel like he wasn't interested or that this was just another case. He made me feel like this was just as important to him as it was to me. Mr. Del Rio reassured me that he would do what he could to make this as painless as possible, but also stated from the beginning, that from his experience of past cases he felt there wasn't enough proof for a conviction, but we couldn't go on that alone and needed to be prepared to go to trial. He replied to my e-mails and calls in a timely manner. My case was dismissed due to lack of proof. I would recommend Mr. Del Rio for anyone who's facing a criminal charge. Sincerely, Maria
