Ohio's Perry Mason!!!
I live in Virginia and I needed to find an attorney for my nephew who lives in Springfield Ohio. I had no clue about the reputations of any attorneys in that area. So all I could do was turn to Google, read the reviews, and pray that I select the best one. My nephew was charged with a Class 2 felo...

He has a passion for advocating on behalf of folks dealing with various criminal issues, and won’t settle for an unfair plea. Most importantly, h...
Christopher Ramon Bucio's Lawyer Endorsements
"A lot of lawyers claims they devote their practice to criminal defense work but I've found that very few are truly versed in the field and/or effective counselors and advocates on behalf of their clients who are going through typically the worst times of their life. Chris Bucio is one of those very few who are indeed that good. His knowledge of Ohio law and procedure, amazing pretrial and trial skills, his compassion for his clients, and his ability to simply get fantastic results separate him from the pact. Clients are in great hands when they go to Chris for help. I highly recommend him."
"I have known Chris for about 15 years. I know of his reputation as an attorney and as the owner of a building where my practice was located for five years. I have found Chris to be personable, intelligent, and easy to do business with. He has a fine reputation as a trial lawyer and has built a fine law practice. He is obviously doing a lot of things right. I would not hesitate to send a client or friend to see Chris for a legal matter.I endorse this lawyer."
"Since joining RKB, I have seen firsthand why Chris has quickly earned the reputation from other attorneys, courts, and his clients as one of the best criminal defense attorneys in Ohio. Plus, unlike some criminal defense attorneys, Chris will not sell his clients down the river to the prosecutor's office the first chance he gets. Instead, as an experienced and highly skilled litigator, he is willing to go to trial if necessary and fight for his clients. If you're charged with a serious crime and your freedom is at stake, don't settle for anything less than the best possible representation - call Chris Bucio today!"
"I endorse this lawyer."
"Chris is the attorney you want to hire if you want to push your case to trial to obtain the best deal and the best chance of winning at trial. He cares enormously about his clients, their cases, and their lives. His care shows through in his work."
"Chris Bucio is a strong client advocate. He works hard on his cases and loves taking cases to trial."
"I endorse this lawyer's work."
