Absolutely Amazing!

I retained Florencia for a DUI with accident charge. I was absolutely terrified. She was completely honest and did not give false hopes at all. Simply stated worst case and best case scenario. When it was time for court she could see the nervousness as soon as she stepped off the elevator. She i...mmediately calmed me down and went over exactly what was going to happen. I would highly recommend her to anyone and within 2 minutes of sitting down during the consultation you will know as I did she is amazing. Personally I have spoken with a few friends that have also had the displeasure of getting a DUI and I can tell you she got me the best deal!

Outstanding and timely are understatements

I had an old charge that I finally needed to address. Since I had moved out of Tx some years back, I had no idea as to whom I should contact. Ms. Rueda's shining reviews attracted my attention, and I contacted her. I informed her about my theft by check charge with accompanying warrant. She expla...ined Travis County's policy about restitution and contesting; I was impressed with Ms. Rueda's clarity, brevity, and courteous professionalism, so I retained her on the spot. I received an Email 11 days later stating that the warrant was recalled and the case dismissed. ELEVEN DAYS! I have only required legal assistance a couple of times, and it took forever. I can conclude by concurring with another of Ms. Rueda's clients; if you find yourself in need of legal representation and don't at least consult with Florencia Rueda, you are wasting your time and money.

.18 Reduction

I blew a .18 but did good on my field sobriety test. The attorneys I me with showed no enthusiasm at all to represent me. The high breath sample made them reluctant. Until I met with Ms. Rueda. After the first meeting I knew I wanted her to represent me. She showed conviction and welcomed the ch...allenge my case would present. Ultimately she got the DWI charges REDUCED to obstruction, as well as deferred!! I recommend Ms. Rueda for DWI defense!

The best Criminal Defense Attorney in Austin, Texas

Florencia is the best criminal defense attorney in Austin, Texas. My original attorney, who delayed my case for 10 months, wanted me to take a felony and 7 years of probation for an offense that I didn't commit. She took my case and within 5 weeks both of the charges were DISMISSED. Not only did sh...e work well with me, but I knew what was going on every step of the way. She knows the law and understands the younger generation. She's a real bulldog in the court room and won't take anything less than the best for her clients. I cannot say enough good things about her and her team. My whole life could have been different if I hadn't hired Florencia. Hire her if you want to win!
