Phenominal job, well done ! Above and beyond all expectatons!

Thank you Cy! I was simply Amazed, Wow!!! After being pulled over in Macomb County by the Sheriff, I found myself in the thralls of the Legal System. Based on the evidence, I was designated a Super Drunk, (What is that I thought?) That in itself scared me to death, researching once I got released.... I started immediately doing my research online for a Attorney. After several hours of searching online and based on Testimonials from all the sites I visited, I filled out the online form for Cy, at Abdo Law Firm, to contact me. I did this around 8:00 p.m., the day I got released from jail. I did not expect any correspondence that same evening, so I turned in for the night, bewildered and hopeful. The next morning, I realized, I received not only a call but also a text from Cy at approximately 8:30 pm the night I submitted my request to meet. I am in Sales, with that sense of urgency I knew I had the right Attorney. He and I spoke the following morning and I was in his office by 10:00 a.m., Unbelievable!!! He and I spoke about my challenge, and Cy had a calming effect with my scenario. In closing, Cy Abdo laid out the scenario, and I followed his advice to a Tee. Cy not only delivered what he and I spoke about at the consultation, Cy Abdo knocked it out of the Park above and beyond what my pragmatic expectations were telling me. Cy was able to get me in and out of the Court System within a month with fantastic results. I have heard of others in my scenario that went with another option for a Attorney, and their end game was much more harsh than mine. I was blessed to have met Cy and his team. I highly recommend Cy Abdo and his Legal Team for any Legal Challenges one may have. Job well done Cy!!! Thank you once again..

Again, there is a lot to be said for having all of the stars lined up regarding your case. First of all, we had a plan on Day 1 and followed it. A good client is someone like you that hires a lawyer and then actually takes our advice based upon our 36 years of experience. What is the point of hiring a lawyer and not following their recommendations? Second all, you obtained a private evaluation which we were able to utilize during every phase of the court process (plea bargaining, sentencing). Thirdly, because of preparation and watching your case like a hawk, our prosecutor and the judge came through as we requested. I am so grateful for your review sir. Like other reviews, I can usually give credit to our clients that take initiative and invest in their own cause. In other words, being proactive. In addition, we know how to work with the system and to achieve favorable results. In your case, we handled it completely with 1 court date in less than 1 month from start to finish. In the end: there was no requirement of reporting probation, no drug testing, no alcohol testing, no community service, no vehicle immobilization, no ignition interlock (always required for a super DUI), no counseling and minimal fines and costs. We make it our business to be the best at the cases we accept which is what our clients deserve. Thanks again for your kind words. ABDO LAW

Top in the game

Cy abdo is an outstanding attorney. After being in an MVA resulting in negligent homicide charges, my driving privileges were revoked for nearly five years. I was doubtful that I would drive again. Cy assured me that I could resume driving if I trusted his expertise and followed the steps he outlined... for the process. He was very detail oriented and knew of any questions or concerns which the courts may have regarding me returning to driving. He directed me to complete any classes and obtain paperwork which might be beneficial prior to my hearing. We had outlined and rehearsed the deposition, and there were no surprises during court. I was initially nervous about the hearing, but quickly realized I was fully prepared and in excellent hands. His representation skills are unmatchable and watching him speak for me in court was inspiring. He articulated my situation and need to move on from the past. I was told that the judge was harsh at decision making; but shortly after the hearing I received word my restoration was granted. Thank you Abdo Law!

Dear Justin, Thank you from all of us at Abdo Law for the review of our firm. We have waited for this day to come for a few years and I'm sure that you are glad that this is in your past. You worked hard to get your legal problems under control and obtain a restoration of your license. We are glad that we could be by your side during this oppressive legal process. You kept a positive attitude throughout the process and did everything that we recommended to win your case! Congratulations. Cy

If I could give more than 5 stars I would

No one wants to be in legal trouble, but when something happens, you definitely want the best attorney you can get. That being said, I can tell you from personal experience that Cy Abdo and the Abdo Law Firm, are the best in the business. From my first call to their office through the end of my case,... Cy and his team not only treated me with respect, dignity and compassion, but they got me results. Beyond just helping me with my case, the Abdo Law Firm has exceeded the expectations of everyone I know who has used their services, which is why they are also my family's lifelong attorneys.

The first person I call when I'm in trouble

I first contacted Cy about seven years ago when I was charged with possession of marijuana and paraphernalia in Rochester, and since then my confidence in his firm has been implicit. I don’t feel the need to shop around or get quotes or advice from any other lawyers or firms after dealing with Cy – ...he has become my go-to lawyer. His compassion for my situation was immediately apparent when I first contacted his office for advice and a quote on my defense. His responses to all of my questions were thorough, thought-out and, above all else, applicable to my specific situation, and he wasted no time in outlining a legal strategy for me based on all of the relevant details. When I agreed to allow him to represent me, I was never left out of the loop and was given clear instructions on what to do, what to say, where to be, and how we we were going to fight the charges brought against me. All of my subsequent interactions with the court then became matter-of-fact, unintimidating and easy-to-follow under Cy’s counsel. His efficiency as the go-between me and the court was surprisingly Spartan and lacking in unnecessary lectures and legal mumbo-jumbo. It’s for all of these reasons and the cornucopia of others not listed here that Cy Abdo is explicitly, unambiguously and unquestioningly the first and only person I call when I need legal help.

I appreciate your review wholeheartedly. The legal system can be frustrating abd oppressive. We attempt to get our clients out of the system with the best possible results in every single case that we handle. We consider it a victory when we can get a dismissal, a felony reduced to a misdemeanor or obtain probation when jail is on the table. Again, than you so much for taking the time to write a review.

Felony Embezzlement

The Abdo Law Firm, more or less saved my future. I made a horrible mistake at a previous place of employment and took money from the company what is considered to be a felony. I went and messaged the Abdo Law Firm off their website and I got a response literally two minutes later from Cy Abdo. We sch...eduled a meeting the very next day and discussed my case. After several trips to the court, I ended up with a great plea bargain. My third visit it was agreed upon that my felony was reduced to a misdemenaor with HYTA, which is probation (usually 12 months) and then if all complies with your probation then the misdemeanor is removed from your record and only you and your lawyer will be able to see it. I had my sentence date, or last court date just this last Friday. I am so thankful for this second chance and I received it because of the Abdo Law Firm. They were extremely knowledgable and always there to speak too. I would recommend the Abdo Law Firm to ANYONE. I can not express my gratitude and thankfulness to this law firm. I was a nervous wreck when I was first charged and thought I was headed to jail for sure. I was reassured by Cy Abdo that it was not going to happen and that they were going to help me. It is well worth the money. If you read all of the reviews of this law firm, they are all very positive and reassuring. I have never left a review for any company or product before until my experience with the Abdo Law Firm. They are excellent lawyers! Do not hesitate if you are in legal trouble, call them! I am so glad I did.

Your case was resolved because we had a solid plan on day 1 and stuck to the plan. First, we set the record straight with the police. Second, we paid 100% restitution to the victim. Lastly, we were able to get many parties on board with our plan including: the detective, the victim, the prosecutor and Judge. The result in your case = DISMISSAL of felony, REDUCTION to misdemeanor, GRANTING HYTA status, NO JAIL and DISMISSAL of proceedings/sealed record in 12 months. This was accomplished by having a strategy and a client that worked closely with our firm to meet our goals and objectives. I am grateful to you for your review. Thank you for allowing ABDO LAW to provide you with legal services! Cy
