Best Attorney

We hired Mr. Onore in Sept 2024 to help our son who needed legal advice and representation. Mr. Onore took our sons case and showed professionalism and respect to our son as he did to us as parents. Mr. Onore made sure our son understood all aspects of the charges he was facing. Almost a year later a...nd court behind him now, We can all exhale now. It was a long road but we could not have done any of it without Mr. Onore. We appreciate all he did and the fact he stayed focused on our son and the case made us that more grateful the day we picked up the phone to call Mr. Onore the first time. Thank you! Thank you!

Criminal case

I can’t express enough gratitude for Todd’s exceptional work as my criminal defense lawyer. From the start, Todd demonstrated a level of expertise, professionalism, and dedication that went far beyond my expectations. My case was serious—the state initially offered me 6 years in prison—but thanks to ...Todd’s relentless effort and brilliant negotiation skills, he secured the best possible outcome. Instead of facing jail time, I received 2 years of probation. But Todd didn’t stop there. He was able to work out a deal where, upon completing probation, the state has agreed to terminate it, vacate my plea, and nolle prosse the case, which means I can begin the process of expunging my record. This was truly the best-case scenario, and I owe it all to Todd’s expertise and hard work. Todd’s commitment to his clients is unparalleled. He guided me through every step of the legal process with clarity, confidence, and care. I always felt like he had my best interests at heart, and his ability to navigate complex legal situations is nothing short of impressive. If you are in need of a criminal defense lawyer, I wholeheartedly recommend Todd. He changed my life, and I’m forever grateful for his support and skill.

AMAZING ATTORNEY IN FLORIDA

Mr. Onore is such an amazing and professional attorney. He is compassionate and caring. He was referred to me by a friend and the moment I met him I knew that he was not only an honest man but a man of his word. After hiring Todd, he promised to fight for me the entire time to get me the best plea de...al and I must say, he truly kept his promise. Even after my sentencing was completed he still kept in contact with me providing me with good advise and cared about my well-being. If you are looking for the best deal ever, I highly recommend Todd Onore to fight for you with your case !

Thank God for Todd!!

Todd represented my son in a burglary case he participated in when he was 18. It caught up to him several years later. The crime had a sentencing guideline of prison. Todd was AMAZING! He managed to negotiate probation for my son. Unfortunately, my son managed to violate his probation after ser...ving 14 months by obtaining a new charge in another county in Florida. Todd's expert advice and knowledge of the law truly helped. Todd managed to have my son's new charge reduced and to have his sentence for the VOP as time served ( my son had spent several months in jail in not one, but 2 counties. To my amazement he managed to have the violation in Broward County sentence also reduced to time served and his probation reinstated. My family and I are grateful and so thankful for Mr. Onore. I never spoke with a secretary, it was always. Todd. He answers your calls, texts and questions. He was always available to speak with us. I highly reccommend Mr. Onore for any legal issues you may have. If Todd can't do it, no one can. We love you Todd!! There aren't enough stars to rate him he is definitely worth more than 5 stars.
