Antony “Tony” Abboud — Criminal Defense & DUI/OVI Attorney | Dayton, Ohio
When you are facing a criminal charge or an OVI in Ohio, the attorney you choose makes all the difference. Tony Abboud is a founding partner of Gounaris Abboud, LPA — one of Dayton’s most recognized criminal defense firms — and he brings something most defense attorneys cannot offer: he has sat on the other side of the courtroom as a prosecutor, and he knows exactly how the government builds its case against you.
As a former City Prosecutor for the City of Vandalia, Mr. Abboud developed a deep, inside understanding of how DUI/OVI offenses and criminal charges are investigated, charged, and tried. He has taken that prosecutorial knowledge and built a systematic defense approach that he applies to every case he handles — from a first-time OVI traffic stop to a federal criminal matter in the Southern District of Ohio.
Mr. Abboud’s trial record speaks for itself. He has secured a Not Guilty verdict in a firstdegree Murder trial — a charge carrying a potential life sentence — and has successfully litigated multiple criminal and civil cases in federal court. His courtroom experience spans the full spectrum of criminal defense, including DUI/OVI defense, drug crimes, domestic violence, sex crimes, theft, and violent felonies.
Mr. Abboud is a skilled Ohio attorney, providing comprehensive legal representation to clients throughout Montgomery County and the greater Dayton area. If you have been arrested or are under investigation, do not wait. The decisions you make in the first 48 hours after an arrest can define the outcome of your entire case.
