Christine Martino Del Prado

Christine was able to help me with an aggravated assault with a deadly weapon case. No I didn’t try to hurt my husband with a pizza cutter by throwing it at the wall. Most attorneys were talking about probation and upwards of 20000 to help my pretty simple case. Even tho it seemed simple to me, she ...made sure to cover all bases concerning the case. She gave me a fair price and was very straight forward and honest about what was at hand. She really gets down to buisness and gets the job done, no Bsing around. She’s a great attorney n a very bada** woman.

I was charged with a misdemeanor assault. I was facing losing my job and getting a u.s citizenship when I came across Mrs Del Prado, from the beginning Mrs Del Prado made me feel welcome and answered all my questions and concerns. She always responded in a timely order. And She was very firm and ve...ry professional about her work she did. She definitely gets the work done. She was able to get my charges dismiss in lest then two weeks I highly recommend Mrs Del Prado if you find your self mixed up with criminal law. thank you so much Mrs Christine

My 19 year old son was charged with a class B misdemeanor theft resulting from a shoplifting incident at a local store. Basically, his poor decision could have derailed him from continuing to pursue his college degree, due to a possible 180 days in jail, and eliminate any possibility of entering int...o military service upon graduation. With our family being unfamiliar with criminal charges of this severity (this was his first and only offense), we were at a loss of what to do or who to turn to. My husband and I felt this one stupid, impulsive moment wasn't worth jeopardizing his future, so we began to search for a reputable attorney to represent our son, which eventually lead us to Christine. We were all so impressed with her, we retained her services within hours after our first conversation, and are so happy we did! She was nothing short of amazing in her representation of our son, and guided him in applying to the Bexar county pre-trial diversion program, where he was accepted and completed community service and educational requirements within a 90 day period, and upon successful completion, his case was dismissed, followed by a complete expunction of his record several months later.

I don't usually write reviews but I think it is important when working with dedicated professionals. I was charged with assault, and it could have destroyed the rest of my life. I decided to hire the Del Prado Law Firm. I don't need to explain how difficult my case was, but all I can say is that, ha...ving a dedicated and experienced team makes a world of difference. They are wonderful people.

I was arrested on bogus charges in June of 2016. When the officer came to my house he was already mocking me for serving in the military in a branch that he did not respect and said that I was a loser who never saw combat. Needless to say, he arrested me and charged me with “Communicating a Terrori...stic Threat/Family Member or Household Member”. This charge, a class “A “misdemeanor falls under the domestic violence realm so I was nothing short of terrified that I was going to lose my right to own a gun or carry fire arms in my official duties. I could have been separated from the military if I was convicted and lost my right to vote among other things. I called all over San Antonio consulting with numerous lawyers and they all said the same thing, the county court that handles Domestic Violence is one of the hardest courts to win in and that it would take years to get the case finalized. The other answer I got was a guarantee they could get the case dismissed based on my story alone and not even seeing the police report. I felt like this was crazy talk since they had no idea of what was documented in the report. Let me just say this, I was totally innocent of the alleged charges against me, however the officer was a good report writer. He made sure the report met the three criteria that are outlined it the Texas penal code under 22.07. Once I saw the report I thought I was going to get convicted even though I was innocent. I have never been arrested or in any kind of trouble with the law so I had no idea what to expect and in fear of losing my career that I have worked so hard for I was traumatized. I called Del-Prado law and spoke with Mario. In speaking with Mario, he spoke about “integrity”, and spoke about doing the “right thing”, and that he could not guarantee me anything and no lawyer should make guarantees to me. I felt very comfortable with him over the phone so I scheduled a meeting with him for the next day. He sat with me for over 2 hours and explained everything in the process from start to finish. He explained how the outcome could go in any direction, gave me recommendations on what to start doing, and explained how the courts works for Domestic Violence. At that point I was set on hiring him. Later that day, I talked to Christine and I got the exact same feeling over the phone. She talked about integrity and how they would not do anything to compromise me or their position. I came in to officially hire them the next day and Christine sat with me for over 2 hours again going over the process in every step of the way and explaining the outcomes. Her direction and explanations was totally in line with her husbands. I expressed to her how scared I was and what this conviction could do to me and she simply said “let us do our job”. During the two month process she had to change my court date twice and she kept me up to date on what was going on almost every single day. She made sure I was able to make the decisions for myself based on her legal professional opinion and never forced me to do anything. On the days where I was extremely scared she provided me the “Tough love” I needed and reinforced the fact she was on my side and in my corner fighting for me. She went so far above and beyond my expectations! Today she called me and told me my case was DISMISSED and my problems were over! I was amazed and so happy! I never stepped foot in a court room and the entire situation was resolved in less than three months total time! I could not have ever asked for a better outcome, and I owe my life and career to the Del-Prados!!! I hope I don’t, but if I ever need legal representation again, I will immediately reach out to them. Thank you Christine and Mario, I owe you my life and I can never repay you
