I could not have asked for a better lawyer.

I hired Cy Abdo for an Operating While Intoxicated Causing Death charge. Obviously this is a very serious charge and as I had never been in trouble with the law before, I had no idea where to turn for representation. I hired Cy based on reviews I saw online and basically just took a chance. I cannot ...tell you what a great decision this was. From the first meeting, Cy treated me with respect. He was not judgmental of my offense in any way and made me feel like I was in good hands from the beginning. Cy is so well versed in criminal law and has probably "seen it all" in his lengthy career. He took the time to explain everything in a way I could completely understand without talking down to me in any way. I always knew exactly what to expect as my case went through the system. Cy worked so hard for me the entire way through the system. He wrote a brilliant report to the sentencing judge that I am convinced help me get the extremely favorable sentence I received. I was not acquitted because I did commit this offense, but I got an incredibly fair sentence and I am so grateful for it. Without Cy's hard work I know I would have received a much stiffer sentence. Finally, if you want a lawyer who will treat you with respect and will fight for you, please consider Cy Abdo. He will have your back.

Thank you so much for this review. I know how hard this was for your family and we obtained the best possible outcome which was better than we had discussed at different stages of this case. Thanks so much.

Amazing lawyer!

Cy helped me more than I could of imagined. He ended up getting one of my charges dropped and my OWI dropped to driving while impaired. Cy ended up getting me the BEST deal I could have hoped for. Cy is a man of his word and will have your back. I highly recommend Cy Abdo and his legal team for any l...egal challenges one may have. Can’t thank you enough Abdo Law!!

Thank you for your feedback Jessica. Your background made it possible to get non-reporting probation and you are not required to provide random tests. Again, many thanks.

Outstanding Service

I have nothing but great things to say about Cy Abdo and his partners. I got into trouble with the law for the first time and was facing a serious DUI offense. I contacted Cy and was impressed every step of the way by his extensive experience with the courts and prompt communication. With his help I ...was able to receive a reduced sentence and get myself back on my feet. I highly recommend his services, and can't express enough how helpful he was.

Saved My Future!

I was charged with a first time DUI. I'm on a professional career track and a criminal charge could have ruined my career. I'm not from the area and went into this consultation completely blind. Cy laid out all the options and made quick work of getting the ball rolling. While I was extremely hes...itant to spend such a big sum of money, I am SO thankful I did. Worth it ten times over. Cy got me the BEST deal I could ever possibly hope for, saving my future in the process. I am endlessly thankful to Cy and Matt for their work on my case.

We set a goal based upon logical calculations in the early stages of your case and planned a course of action. I was not willing to take 'no' for an answer after I looked at this case from every angle and what you have achieved during your lifetime. We stood together with you during the frustrating court process so that you could see our efforts at every step in your case. Fortunately, there is such a thing as karma! Thank you for your review. Cy and Matthew

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
