Incredible Job!

Hired Richard Canina for my daughter who was arrested for multiple felony domestic violence charges. We met with several different lawyers, but Rick immediately stood out among the crowd. Let me tell you: this man is the REAL THING...incredibly intelligent, detail oriented, and caring throughout the ...entire case. You can tell he genuinely loves what he does and cared for his clients like family. Mr. Canina was always honest and straightforward with us. His office has an open-door policy and he always took extra time to answer our questions. When an offer for resolution was made by the State's Attorney, Richard was up front with us and recommended against accepting the State's offer because he wanted to investigate the case more fully. He didn't just rush her into a resolution that she wasn't comfortable with (another lawyer did this with her in the past). Ultimately, after many months of working the case, her charge was reduced to a misdemeanor with no incarceration and no conviction. We are all incredibly grateful for what Mr. Canina and his office has done for us. My daughter now has now gotten her life back together and is doing extremely well. Thank you Rick !!!

Nothing but the best...

I retained Mr. Richard G. Canina for a DUI case. Rick provided me with the highest level of professional legal counsel available. The advice and representation I received throughout this difficult process was everything I could hope for. Rick went above and beyond my expectations in helping me in my... case. He was very prompt in answering all the questions I had and constantly kept me informed about what was going on with my case. Finding an attorney of this caliber that truly cared about what I was facing did not come easy until I contacted his firm. Rick was extremely professional/knowledgeable and I would highly recommend contacting him if you need a great criminal defense attorney.

He will get you the best results the Law will allow.

I consulted with Mr. Canina and he clearly explained my legal situation and how he could help me. Once I retained his services he clearly explained to me what he would be attempting to get me released without prison time. At court he was on time and again clearly explained to me the results. After... two court appearances he was able to get me Pretrial Diversion. The best result I could hope for. The entire time I was suffering from Depression and Anxiety. My brain was clouded and I was having trouble comprehending everything Mr. Canina was telling me. He patiently worked with me and often had to explain things to me several times.

Best Defense Lawyer in Brevard County!

From the first day I sat in his office, Mr. Canina was there for me every step of the way. You could tell that he truly cared about me as a person and WANTED to get me a great result. Unlike a lot of lawyers out there, he did not simply take my money and run. He provided a level of personal service a...nd communication that put me at ease throughout a very rough time in my life. Day or night, he was ALWAYS available to speak to me and even gave me his personal cell phone number! He took his time to explain the law to me and made sure that I understood what was going on. He was able to get me the drug treatment and counseling that I needed and got the prosecutor to come off jail time. I've had other (cheaper) lawyers in the past and I can honestly say that, with Mr. Canina, you get what you pay for. Thanks Rick!
