Not A Single Better Attorney, "Anywhere!"

I was connected to Ms. Rios by way of a friend. I came to her in a time of desperation, after being charged with a felony, and was very scared about what would become of it. I sat with her and informed her of the situation I was facing. Not only did Serita calm my nerves, she blew me away with her f...irst hand knowledge regarding the charges I stood accused of. As well as, the price for her services. I had talked to three different attorneys before her, telling them exactly the same thing word for word and she was $350 less then two?of them, ans almost $800 less then the third. I was still a bit skeptical of her ability due to the lesser charge then the others, but decided to obtain her services due to the killer instinct she had displayed in our consultation visit. And WOW! Am I ever glad I did! She allowed me to not miss work for most of the court appearances, and when I did her wonderful staff was right there to remind me of obligations I needed to do and advising me of my court dates early, so they wouldn't be missed. Ms Rios followed thru with EXACTLY what she promised, down to the letter. My Felony charge was dropped to a misdemeanor, and I only received (15)hours of community service. As opposed to a lengthy prison sentence, and large fines. Ms. Rios is an absolute diamond among pieces of coal in her industry. Lord forbid something else should ever happen to my family, friends, or myself. But if it does, I personally guarantee that I will stand on whoever's head to get them to obtain Ms. Rios's services services! An absolutely wonderful woman, and even better Attorney!! God Bless & Thank You, Ms Rios! Thank you, Thank you, and Thank You!
