A highly respected, straight talking professional

I was charged with Brandishing a Firearm in Public. Cy Abdo was able to work with the Prosecutor and the Judge to reduce the charge to a very low Disturbing the Peace offense. Further the court took it under MCL 771.1 and dismissed the charge with no period of probation, no loss of CPL or gun right...s. Cy is a gentleman, straight shooter and well respected by the courts. I would absolutely use him again, but sure hope I never do.

You never belonged in a lawyers office under these circumstances. The system works ok, not great. The legal system often labels the wrong person as a victim and its hard to get the courts, police and prosecutor to listen to another side to the story. Fortunately, your case worked out well and the Judge was more than willing to get rid of this case. Thanks for the review.

Recent Case In Macomb County

Wish I could give more than a 5 Star rating. I used Cy for a recent case in Macomb County and he did an outstanding job with my case. Cy explained the possible outcomes for my case in detail and explained his approach for the hearing. If anyone is looking for a lawyer in a criminal case, they need to... call Cy. He actually cares about his clients and goes beyond what most lawyers are willing to do. I highly recommend Cy Abdo, he is the BEST.

Professional! Respectful! Winner!!

I was charged with a high-BAC DUI/OWI. I made a mistake and was willing to accept responsibility for my actions, whatever they may be. Reached out to Mr. Abdo. He met with me quickly. Was extremely professional and told me what I could expect. My court date came and he got me a penalty of 12 mont...hs non-reporting probation with random testing during those months. Also had to complete a two hour impact class. After six months he filed for an early termination of probation. That court date was today. I did everything required of my probation terms and he was able to get my probation terminated five months early. I would highly recommend Mr. Abdo if you’re needing assistance in the court system. No judgment. Very proactive. Highly effective! Thanks again Cy!

Just Do It!

If your back is against the wall and you need help, hire Cy! I made a mistake which wound up being a felony and of course had me very scared as I am not someone who has spent their life in and out of courts and jails. The first time I contacted Cy he told me not to worry about it and he'll take care ...of it. Well that's easier said than done when all I could worry about was what was going to happen to me, my family and my job. Every time I spoke with him he was always very reassuring that I wouldn't go to jail and everything would be fine. While it made me feel better to hear that, I was still very uncertain. How can this man basically all but guarantee I would stay out of jail?? Well, he was right! He had a plan and after only two court dates I'm able to get back to my life when it could have been much worse. Not sure I would have gotten the same results elsewhere. He has done this for a long time and is very well known and respected in the court. This is the first time I've ever hired a lawyer and hopefully the last. BUT, if something were to come up or somebody needed help, Cy and his team is where I would direct them. No felony on my record and no jail time! Thank you Cy!

Excellent Lawyer

Cy and his team we're very professional and experienced. They helped me out of a tight spot and we're able to help me avoid jail time and get me to a sentence of 6 months probation for a firearms violation. I would highly recommend them to anyone.
