I was really in a bad and scary place in my life, facing a drug charge and looking at 8 years, and facing 16 years if I lost at trial. I remember Mr. DeLuca saying to me that if we went to trial, he would fight for me with all he had at that point. If I took the 8 years, I would lose everything I had—like my wife and my children, my job, my house. Everything I had was on the line. I was really scared, but there was something in the way Mr. DeLuca said he would represent me that made me feel safe and confident in his skill as an attorney. Safe to say, we did go to trial, and I was found not guilty on all charges. His cross-examination of the witnesses and bringing aspects to life that the jury could see was the truth. Whether it was the accuser or the police on the stand, he made every truth and untruth come to life—nothing less than a real-life Perry Mason. That was in 2013. Honestly, if it were not for Mr. DeLuca, I would still be incarcerated at this very time that I am writing this review. I have since asked Mr. DeLuca to represent other family members and friends with the same stellar result as the first time. He helped give me back my life. Thanks, you’re my brother from another mother.
