Excellent Attorney

Mr. Perez is an amazing attorney. He went above and beyond in my defense. He’s very communicative, caring, and will fight for his client. I would definitely recommend his services.

Excellent representation

Julio provided excellent representation. He gave me hope when I was left with none. I could not have asked for better representation and out of state at that. My case was in Miami Beach, Miami-Dade County and for the full duration of his services, I was living out of state. His services for my case w...ere efficient and effective. My charges consisted of trafficking and possession, and he was able to get both trafficking charges completely dropped. On account of the possession, I got the best possible scenario where I entered into only a 3-month, remote program. After the program is completed, my case is closed. I trusted his advice and was extremely happy with the outcome. Julio was responsive, honest, and transparent with me throughout the entire case. He made it to where my involvement and stress load were minimal. I highly recommend him and if needed would hire him again. Thank you, Julio, for everything you did!
