Domestic Violence Charges

I had 4 domestic violence charges against me which included a felony and 3 misdemeanors... all while going through a divorce. What a nightmare. I immediately wanted to hire the best, high priced, gray-haired lawyer I could find thinking they would be able to help me through this. Fortunately, I knew ...Jon and trusted him, so I asked his opinion. He assured me he had the experience and knowledge to handle my criminal case, so I hired him. With my job on the line due to the felony charge, it wasn't easy to put my livelihood in someone else's hands. I had to hire a separate lawyer for my divorce, so I found the most experienced, high-priced, gray-haired guy I could. In comparing the two attorneys, hiring Jon was the best money I could have spent. In fact, if it wasn't for his recommendation to take a paternity test (which the divorce attorney should have recommended), I would be paying my ex nearly half my salary in maintenance, alimony, and child support. Ultimately, all of the charges were reduced to a single deferred misdemeanor in a plea deal. After completing Jefferson County's Diversion program, all charges will be expunged and I will have a clean record once again. I could have spent at least three times as much on an old "experienced" lawyer, but in my experience, I received better service from Jon, with a great outcome, all at a much more reasonable price. Knowing what I know now, I wish Jon would have been available for the divorce case too.

Supporting the HARD working class American!

John Lucero is the best there is. Now granted my situation was due to a lack of self control but seriously people should you be issued a felony simple because you speed? Absolutely not, driving under the influence is one thing but simply being overly punctual and on time as well as dependable is a mu...st in today's aviation society especially when people's live could be at stake. John not only prevented the state from excessively punishing my driving habits, but by deterring a felony conviction he saved my job as I would not be able to maintain a security clearance with a felony on my record. John fought extrodinarily hard to make sure that the offer I had received from a company out of state would not be turned down simply because of minor traffic infractions! I just want to give a big thank you to Jonathan Lucero and I highly advise anyone in need of his expertise seek his council so they may have a chance at surviving this rough economy, because the D.A.'s sure don't mind turning a hard working, tax paying, productive member of society into another statistical criminal.... Thank you John!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Jonathan Lucero Review

Jonathan helped me sort out a traffic ticket with a pressing deadline before I moved out of town. He kept me informed about any new developments and took all the stress out of worrying about court and paying my fine.
