Fast, Honest, and Caring

I worked with Hugo for my legal separation case. I mentioned to him that I didn't want to attack my spouse and he was sensitive toward that and gave good advice on how to proceed. He acted quickly to get me and my son the protection he needed, gave me honest feedback about the case, explained things ...at length to clarify questions, responded quickly to questions/concerns, and always had a great attitude. I'd recommend him to anyone. There was only one breakdown in communication; I had asked him to take a break from working on my case and he didn't. Before I found out, he had put several more hours into the case that I couldn't afford at that time so I (sadly) had to end my contract with him. They were very helpful and lenient with me in getting that all ended and cleaned up and he met with me one last time and went over the next steps of my case which was helpful and appreciated.

Great Lawyer

Hugo was professional, well versed in family law and a good negotiator. On top of that he was easy to talk to and spoke to me in a way that I could understand exactly what was happening . He was very responsive to requests and alway returned calls promptly. I will and all ready have referred to him s...ome people I know and will continue to do so in the future. I highly recommend him.

Superlative Counselor

Let me start off my saying I went with a big named Divorce for Men firm, Goldberg Jones, initially. My initial lawyer left and my second lawyer did not answer phone calls, emails, and texts, unless it was time to collect his monthly charges. Mr. Johnson was very responsive, compassionate during one... of the toughest times of my life. Going through a divorce is very difficult especially if it is not amicable. The last thing you need is a lawyer who adds to the stress as the lawyers at Goldberg Jones did. Dellino law group is amazing across the board. They do not tell you what you want to hear and then let you down. They fight to the hilt for you. Hugo is very knowledgeable and highly ethically. He and his firm are not about billing and collecting. They offer amazing service. I have to say I am a very demanding client who wants answers and results, yesterday. Hugo and Michelle did not once get frustrated with me. If you are a busy person who wants unparalleled service go with Dellino law firm and ask for Hugo. He is simply phenomenal.

Incredible Attorney, Great Guy, Impeccable Service, Very Professional!

Hugo is an incredible Lawyer. He is Smart, aggressive, considerate, and all in all a very decent, honest and trustworthy guy. If you are lucky enough to have the opportunity to be represented by Hugo, take it. He is young, but wise beyond his years. My case was basically a "No-win" case, but Hugo fou...ght very hard, and in the end he achieved the best of all possible outcomes for my fiancee and myself. He kept us in the loop constantly, and even though I admit we were very stressed out, and probably difficult to deal with sometimes, he was always there to answer our questions in a helpful, professional manner. He has a long promising career in front of him, and I'm sure that he's going to do a lot of good things for a lot of good people. I couldn't be happier with Hugo's performance, and I truly feel it is an honor to have met, and worked with Him.
