Christine Martino Del Prado

My ordeal started in April of 2013. I was a police officer of 19 years and was facing a serious charge of Indecency of a Child and certain prison time if I did not vigorously fight these charges. I had a great attorney who was my primary counsel and who I can't say enough good things about him. D...uring my three year ordeal my primary attorney would mention we would need to consider hiring a second attorney to be his second if and when we went to trial. The DA's office always has two attorneys during a trial and we needed to be ready. In late 2015 my primary counsel mentioned Christine Del Prado as our second. After weighing my options I gathered every penny I had and made the decision to hire Christine. Christine hit the ground running! She wanted to know every single shred of evidence. She tasked my primary counsels staff with new to do list. I was amazed with the energy she brought into a team that was already established to "win." Even though we hired her as a second I am glad to tell you she didn't stick to her primary role! She was all in as co-counsel. Christine and my primary counsel worked hand and hand for the next five months. They found new evidence and even drove to Austin to interview a witness. No one will do this for you! In April 2016 we had a trial and I am happy to say on the third anniversary to the day I was declared "not guilty." I owe my freedom to Christine and my primary counsel. I would also like to mention Mario Del Prado. Even though I never hired Mario he was always there consulting with Christine. Thank you Christine and my primary counsel for a job well done!

I don't know where to start, I have multiple drug convictions in multiple states including Texas and I've been to prison. I recently was charged with possession of a large amount of drugs on a train passing thru San Antonio, this case was going to send me away for a longtime. I live in Houston, so ...after finding out what court had my case, I began researching lawyers in San Antonio. I found out that Christine and Mario worked in 145th Court. I contacted them and drove to San Antonio to meet with them, they got right to the technicalities of the case and how to beat it There retainer was considerably less than other attorneys. They didn't try and charge me anything extra. They even suggested I provide things as evidence to keep them from hiring a investigator, I went to court a total of 3 times, Mario had my case referred to an outside jury. He poked wholes in it which ultimately allowed me to walk Scott free. There was no indictment, the 3 times I went to court Mario was on time, I drove 3 hours just to sit n court for 30 min and leave. I noticed Mario is very respected by the bailiffs and DA' s in that 145th Court. I don't know what kind of pull he has there but instead of 30 or 40 yrs.' I'm sitting here with my family and I can start my life over. I didn't lose my family or my job. Thank you Mario and Christine for a job well done, god bless you !!!

As a client of Christine, I can say without reservation that her ratings are not of coincidence, but help portray an accurate representation of her professionalism, character, care, knowledge, and talent. As a military officer, I had ensured that I had interviewed former JAG officers for suitable re...presentation for my criminal charges. After speaking with Christine, I had disregarded the other half-dozen possible candidates, sensing that Christine would best represent my case. I can honestly say that it was the best investment I have ever made in my life. Through multiple discussions, she instilled a sense of confidence in me for the possible outcome of the cases. Christine exhibited a mastery of the court system that I did not fully anticipate. She was not only instrumental in her strategy, but knew the court system inside and out, including the prosecution and judges. I would not hesitate for an instant to select Christine as future representation if needed. Thank you Christine, I will be forever grateful.
