Award-Winning Criminal Defense Attorney

"It's hard to think of another attorney that will literally give you his cell phone number after the first consultation, but that's exactly what Chris does. He has a passion for advocating on behalf of folks dealing with various criminal issues, and won't settle for an unfair plea. Most importantly, he is not afraid to go to trial if necessary! Highly recommend!"

"Chris Bucio has helped me several times, he's gotten my charges dropped and is always someone who actually cares about your situation. He tells you how it is and what needs to be done. I have referred him several clients and he has helped them tremendously in their situations as well, always giving them fair prices. Chris really does serve his community well."

"My husband was facing 63 years in prison, clearly her for some very serious charges. Out of the blue, my husband was pulled over in our home state for a traffic stop and learned he had some pending charges in Ohio. We were not prepared for such a traumatic event. He was arrested for a crime is that he did not commit based on a company he worked for many years.

"I can't thank Chris enough. I was in a dire situation that needed experienced legal advice. Chris not only helped me but became an advocate in my corner. I owe Chris and Nikki and the rest of his staff a great deal. I would recommend Roberts Kelly and Bucio to anyone."

"I had quite the list of charges against me when I and my wife asked for Mr. Bucio's help. The combination of all the charges over multiple counties added up to a potential of 35 or more years in prison and huge fines as well as a tier-2 sex offender registration. Mr. Bucio went to work right away and was able to negotiate down to a misdemeanor 3 in one county and a felony 2 with a combined maximum of 8 years and 2 months and $5,500 in fines. I walked away from the courtroom with 5 years probation, no fines, and registered as a tier 1 sex offender. 

"Chris was honest with me and willing to talk and answer any questions I had from the first meeting we had till the end of my case, he even gave me his personal cell phone number. Chris made sure to keep me informed every step of the way and always had my best interest in mind. I was lucky I had an attorney like Chris."

"He does what he says, one of the few men these days you can take on his word. Without going into too much detail, I found myself in the worst situation in my life. Long story short, I was facing 2 felony charges and an unknown fate. My brother who lives out west (who bailed me out) had his lawyer friend look up the top lawyers in Ohio. Chris came up as the No. 1 choice. 

"Mr. Bucio represented my son who was charged with a felony sexual offense for his emotional and consensual physical relationship with a young mother. Statutory laws have no room for reasonable judgment or tailoring to unique situations. The odds were against my son as he faced life-changing consequences such as losing his job, years of incarceration, many thousands of dollars in fees and fines, and his ability to continue in his role as the supportive and actively involved father of his toddler son.

"Mr. Bucio is an exceptional attorney! Not only does he handle your case with precision, he cares about you as a person. Mr. Bucio handled my judicial release case with compassion. He truly wanted me to be back home with my family and recognized how hard I worked to get there. I would recommend Chris to anyone with a criminal case. These cases are tough on clients as well as their family members. He doesn't just treat you as a case, he really cares about what you are going through!"
