Terrific lawyer who goes above and beyond

We hired Jason to represent my aunt in a vehicle violation/immigration matter. Jason was wonderful since he spoke spanish and my aunt did not speak english. Jason was very helpful and attentive to my aunt's case. He kept constant track of her status. He always made sure that we had a plan for any ver...dict that my aunt may get. Thankfully he was successful in releasing her and she is now on a path to a better life.

Excellent Attorney

I had never been charged with anything before and my life changed from day to night after receiving a BUI charge. Attorney Rios took over my case from another attorney. I can not express in words how confident, knowledgable and proffessional Attorney Rios handled my case. When I walked into a cour...troom with Attorney Rios if felt I was being represented by an excellent attorney. Thanks to this wonderful Attoney and his dedication, my BUI case was dropped. Trust me when I tell you if need an attorney to defend you, Attorney Jason Rios is the person!!!

Best trial lawyer ever.....

In 2014 I was arrested in my driveway for DUI. After reading my discovery papers I felt the case should go to jury trial. My friends and family said I should hire a private attorney, because they felt that the case was beatable and a public defender would try to talk me into signing a plea bargain. ... After to talking to my public defender (Jason Rio's) that was assigned to me by the court I had a good feeling. Even though Jason was a public defender he told me from the beginning that this case was beatable and said he couldn't wait to get the arresting police officers on the witness stand. He wasn't joking. He tore into the officers testimony during trial like a scalpel and we beat the case in front of six jury members.

DUI

I had Mr.Rios represent me when I had a DUI. I was terrified and never been in a situation like that before but he made me feel a lot better about the situation and worked with me though every step of the way (and I know I'm not the easiest person to deal with). He was really thorough with everything... and always responded and had a solution which is big for me because I had a lot of question and was really confused about the process. I'd highly recommend him and if I ever (let's hope not) need legal council again I'd definitely hire him in a second.
