"honest lawyer" jajaaj. It's easier to find a unicorn in the desert. But the earier response about Guzman is pretty acurate. It's a very good Law Firm. It's a very small one that only appears big Online and not the "biggest in the Country" like mentioned but in this case size really does not matter.

Criminal defense lawyers are the biggest scumbags in DR.
If the case is still in Fiscalia and not in court yet, try to resolve it without a lawyer with fiscal first.
Once you hire a criminal defense lawyer, he will do his best to make a case as much complicated as possible, so the client will have much more problems when he had before hiring a lawyer, this way the lawyer can milk the client for more and more money. In other words, most lawyers work against their clients, I know it sounds absurd, but that's the way they get more money, creating more problems for their clients.
So, what hearings exactly? Is your friend has a citacion from fiscalia because of querella of another party, that's not a court hearing. That's a meeting where fiscal wants to hear both (or more) parties to try to resolve it without going any further, actually. Only 15% of cases being heard at fiscalias go to court after. So if you hire a criminal defense lawyer, you can make sure he/she will do anything that the case will not end right there in Fiscalia and will go to court, this way the lawyer can get more money. So think twice before hiring one.
There are many people who got in jail not because they did not have a lawyer, but because they hired one.

Please let's not repeat over and over again everyone's opinions about lawyers. The OP asked for recommendations, let's keep it at that.
This has nothing to do with the opinion about Immigration lawyers in another thread. Criminal defense lawyers is the next level shlt. I personally know people who ended up in jail just because they hired one, and they probably would be doing good now if they didn't let the lawyer to f*ck up their case.
And what I described in my post above is just about the situation when the case is still in Fiscalia. If it made it to court, then criminal defense lawyers start to evaluate how to milk the client for even more money, they usually negotiate with the other side too, there's always some proposals to buy the judge, if the client agrees, most of the time those money just stay in the lawyer's pocket, if there's another side of the conflict (a victim of the suspected crime or fraud, for example) there are always negotiations who pays more, if the other side has the reason to pay your lawyer to put you in jail, he will sell you to them and get their money and your money..... I saw all of that happened many times here.
OP asked about honest lawyer for a criminal case, for hearings in Fiscalia. I describe how criminal defense lawyers work in DR, so he can forget about the honest one. And I say again, try to work it out with fiscal first, if it's not too late. That's what those hearings in Fiscalia are intended for, to resolve the case right there, and as I mentioned before, only 15% of cases (it's official stats for 2023) can't be resolved in Fiscalia and go further.

The Ficalias are bigger thieves than the Lawyers here. They will take a Hot Stove.......I had a case once. Killed a guy 20 years ago and never served a day. I did not have a lawyer. I HAD TWO LAWYERS.....................

The best way out is BEFORE you even get to the Fiscal. The local PN. Costs a lot less..........
Well Sir, that maybe. I guess I live a boring life. I have never had a scrape with the law, either criminal or civil. I have often used the services of legal counsel for business matters and have had nothing but professional exchanges. Maybe I should go on a drunk and drug fueled rampage so I can have some excitement in my life....nah, I will just keep playing golf
You always show examples of how things were working 20 years ago. There work different now, I've been to Fiscalia a few times during recent years because somebody wanted to press charges against me for violation of some articulos de Codigo Penal, and not just once, so I perfectly know what I am talking about. I resolved my problems myself in Fiscalia to avoid bigger problems. Some of my friends in similar cases decided to go with criminal defense lawyers, and one ended up leaving DR once and forever without possibility to come back, another one ended up in jail, others just spent exorbitant amount of money for scumbag lawyers in courts instead of simply resolving their problems in Fiscalia.
And I can also give you some examples how things were solved 20 years ago here, but it would be totally off-topic and irrelevant.
The OP asked for lawyer recommendations. He received a few suggestions, and the rest does not apply. Thread is closed.
