Christopher Bucio Attorney at Law

I can’t express my sincere gratitude for Chris and his dedication to making sure I came out ok in the end of a terrible ordeal. My nightmare started when I was living in Ohio.. I had been accused of a terrible crime and had hired another attorney at first before learning of Chris. I felt that although my case ended significantly better than it could have, I didn’t feel like I had been taken care of in the way I had hoped from my prior attorney. I had met Chris before but had no idea he was a criminal defense attorney. Through conversation I had explained my troubles I was dealing with and he immediately responded “I wish I had known! I would have helped you in every way possible!” Well, he proved that to be true. With the advice of my prior attorney, I accepted a plea deal in Ohio and immediately after finishing my short sentence I was transferred to Michigan to begin proving my innocence in a false accusation case that was claimed to have taken place over 5 years ago. I was left feeling like I had been kicked while I was already down. I called my wife and immediately told her to get in contact with Chris Bucio for advice. Because I was now facing criminal charges in Michigan, I needed an attorney who could practice in Michigan. Chris immediately put us in touch with one of the best criminal defense attorneys in the state of Michigan that he had personally worked with in other cases. He told me to trust him through the process and that he would see me through it and be there every step of the way. And he did! The first court appearance in Michigan I didn’t expect to see Chris getting out of his vehicle and walking up to the courthouse. He made the 5 hour drive to Michigan to be there in support of me and to begin the process of being able to join my Michigan attorney to start representing me as well. Chris was exactly what I needed.. someone to believe me and believe in my innocence. He told me to keep fighting, not to settle if I didn’t feel it was right. Chris gave me the confidence as a man to not hang my head in shame while I felt the weight of the world on my shoulders as if everyone was looking at me as if I was a monster. Chris was a skilled advocate throughout my entire case and a source of reassurance during my most challenging time in life. Whenever I needed advice he was reachable. And anytime we discussed my case it was a conversation without having to look at notes to remember the details- he absorbed it all and I felt like I was in the best hands possible despite he was in Ohio and I was in Michigan. My ordeal lasted a couple years, but ended in a way that I was satisfied with. No jail time!!! I was able to end it and begin restoring the pieces of a shattered life immediately. I was there to help raise my newborn daughter and care for our other children. I was able to keep my job. I was able to have the life that I was afraid of losing thanks to Chris and his dedication to proving my innocence. My case was already tricky as I had a prior record from Ohio going into this Michigan case. I will forever be grateful for him and his unwavering dedication to not back down or let me slip through the cracks when it easily could have happened. Chris made me feel like I was more than a case to win, or a client to represent. Chris made me feel like family. God forbid I find myself in a situation like this again, Chris is the first contact in my phone I’m calling. HIGHLY recommend!!
